A group of youth has earned themselves a name in Mt Kenya region for their expertise in slaughtering chickens for sale.

The group comprises seven people who have left their footprints in Nyeri, Muranga, Kiambu, Laikipia, Meru, Embu and Nairobi counties. The seven entrepreneurs work on a commission basis, whereby they travel from farm to farm offering their services.

Group leader Joel Kibe, 32, says he has slaughtered chickens for eight years. Due to financial challenges, he was unable to further his studies after completing primary school, forcing him to seek employment as a farmhand.
