FISHING

Most people living around the Lake have always been believed to be fishermen. In the Samia community living near the lake Victoria the story was the same. Fishing was the order of the day and without fish businesses and lives would come to a stand still.For Okello he had done the job of fishing for  a very long time  without success.
One day he discovered a new venture of sand harvesting at some of the lake. He changed his business from fishing to sand harvesting. He would go with his boat to that area and then harvest sand into  that boat and then sell it out to constructors. Within two months Okello was earning over half a million daily. Thanks to his grandfather who helped him discover the new venture that completely changed his life.
