"The biggest hardship that I face in my life is that being a man I find it difficult in doing households chores without a wife and at the same time I am expected to go to my daily casual work. So this makes me at times not to perform well in my duties due to having a lot of things to do in mind like ploughing people's farms before I can be paid for the day."

"The achievement that I am proudest of is that when I got married we never had a house but we managed to save cash by doing casual jobs like ploughing other people's farms which enabled us to build the house that we currently stay in."

"The biggest hardship that I face in my life is that currently I don't have a bull that I can use in ploughing my farm hence making me to do a lot of manual work like digging so that I can prepare my farm for planting season. I also face a challenge of accessing clean water as our area faces severe drought and we walk long distance to access water."

"The biggest hardship that we face right now is lack of our own house, we currently live in my brother in law's house but he might come back home and then we will not have a place to stay."

"My proudest achievement is that immediately after completing high school I was able to get a job in a supermarket and with my wages I was able to buy furniture for my mother's house, to this day she still tells me how proud she is of me."

"The biggest hardship that I face right now is that ever since my spouse died I am the sole breadwinner, my small business is overwhelmed and cannot meet all the demands of my family and they often lack a lot of things."

"My proudest achievement is having struggled with my business and saving my profits. I have been able to use the saved cash to pay school fees for my children and most have completed secondary school except one who is in his last year at secondary school."
