Ben Njeru with his turkeys. The business started as a hobby.

What started as a hobby has turned out to be a thriving business for a banker. Ben Njeru, who lives in Mavoko, has turned his love for turkeys into a tremendous venture, that has enabled him earn extra coins.

 “I developed the passion when I was a young boy in primary school. My parents kept a few turkeys and I was always fascinated by them. I liked their imposing looks and how they would spread their wings. They were different, very beautiful and I knew I would keep them one day. But I remember they all died and my parents never kept them again,’’ reveals Njeru.
