MARTIN KAMAU MURIUKI ~ CHAIRMAN, ANGAZA GROUP
I struggled for long time as a hawker in Mombasa before understanding the power of saving. I saved KShs 150,000 and bought a piece of land in Thika. Then I realized I had been conned. I was devastated! I asked God to guide me to help others procure genuine land at affordable price. He led me to read Isaiah 60:1. Therefore the name Angaza (Shine) was born. I registered Angaza as a sole proprietor in 2007 and slowly started selling plots of land. By 2013, I had enough real estate experience and a team to incorporate the Angaza Real estate. Our first projects to sell as a company was in Rumuruti for KShs 45,000 and Konza for KShs 75,000. These lands’ value has now appreciated to KShs 500,000. We have done over 50 similarly successful projects. God has been our Partner in everything we do. Therefore, we commission and sanctify every project through prayers. The Angaza Africa Sacco came a year later in 2014.This was out of our clients’plea and out of the need to instill a saving culture. It has helped more people afford to own land, by saving as little as half a dollar a day.
