× My hometown is in Egypt, especially in the Cafe Sheikh government.
✓ My hometown is in Egypt, especially in the Kafr El Sheikh governorate.
The phrase 'the Cafe Sheikh government' is incorrect. The correct term is 'Kafr El Sheikh governorate', which is a proper noun and does not require 'the' before 'government'. Also, 'government' should be 'governorate' to refer to the administrative region.
× The most thing I like about my hometown is it's famous about the the sea and fish and also have a good weather.
✓ The main thing I like about my hometown is that it's famous for the sea and fish and also has good weather.
'The most thing' is incorrect; 'the main thing' or 'the most important thing' is better. 'Famous about' should be 'famous for'. The repeated 'the the' is a typo. 'Have a good weather' should be 'has good weather' because 'weather' is uncountable and requires 'has' for third person singular.
× and also have a good weather.
✓ and also has good weather.
The subject is 'it' referring to the hometown, which is singular, so the verb should be 'has' not 'have'.
× I lived there since I was a child.
✓ I have lived there since I was a child.
The sentence refers to an action that started in the past and continues to the present, so the present perfect tense 'have lived' is appropriate instead of simple past 'lived'.
× Unfortunately, it's not because it have a little or a few, uh, service and a little education system and the schools.
✓ Unfortunately, it's not because it has few services and a limited education system and schools.
The subject 'it' is singular, so the verb should be 'has' not 'have'. Also, 'a little or a few service' is incorrect; 'few services' is better because 'service' is countable here. 'A little education system' is awkward; 'a limited education system' is clearer.
