"The achievement am proudest of is being able to raise my children. Before I got married here five months ago I was operating as a single mother of five children. Through small businesses I struggled to make ends meet for them"

"The achievement am proudest of is just the fact that I have raised my children to where they are now. I have literally hustled and denied myself a lot just for them. My eldest is now in form three and for that I feel very proud."
