Zosi
received a $28 ninth payment.
"Solving the hunger issue that my mother and I face is my only concern right now. Since we have no one to count on for provisions, the cash transfers are our only hope of getting decent meals and covering the medical costs for my mother, who is way advanced in age. I plan to use the upcoming cash transfers to continue buying food for my family and ensure do not go hungry a day in our lives."

Ibrahim
received a $28 ninth payment.
"I have plans to finally start a business this year because the cost of living has gone extremely high, yet I have a family to look after. Therefore, I will try to keep a small amount of the money that I receive each time so that when I finally have enough, I can finally open a store and start selling items that will assist me in looking after my family. I have also so far been able to purchase two goats, six hens, and two turkeys with the funds that I have been receiving. Therefore, I plan to acquire more farm animals, which can be quite beneficial when I'm struggling financially."

"We are living a poor life and poverty is too much,we at times nit able to get food so we end up sleeping on empty stomach and that is the reason why my husband left us here and went to Kenya to work so that we get basic needs and live a better life.
We don't have another land to cultivate so life is hard since I only Base on this land where we live as well to survive."
