It was during working with this company that I started privately selling certain medicine to wholesalers in the Kisumu area. In a space of two to three years, I made lots of money. I used to sell these medicine on a cash-only basis and used to get substantial amount of cash. As it was not safe to carry all this cash in my travels through the backcountry, I used to go to Gulami Meghji’s shop and made arrangements for them to issue me a cheque in exchange for cash. In those days they were one of the leading and reputable textile wholesalers in Kisumu. Gulamali Meghji and his brother, Lutafali Meghji, did me a lot of favours in those days. Gulami Meghji was father of Shirin Bhabhi and Begum Aunty; our family relations was also extremely good.
