Ismah Sekabira is the leader of his lending group in Mukono. He is a hard working boda boda cyclist in Mukono for a very long time and because of his down to earth nature, Ismah has a number of loyal customers that will always wait for him even if he has other customers to take. He is a father of four and is able to take care of his family using profits from his business. He now has a motorcycle of his own and he plans to have a fleet so that he can hire them out to his fellow youth in the same business. At the moment, he needs a loan to be able to buy another boda boda in addition to the savings from his previous loans.
