"The biggest hardship that I have faced in life is when I lost the job we I had. I had to look for other ways of earning a living like farming and charcoal making. This hasn't been reliable and so life has been difficult at times."

"The biggest hardship that we have faced in life is that we have been struggling to plough our farms because we don't have oxen plough. We normally depend on the ones for hire but they are expensive. This inhibits our capacity to get good harvest."

"Our proudest achievement is that we have been able to build a house for the family. The little money that we saved enabled us to buy iron sheets and other building materials which we used for construction."
