"The biggest hardship that I am faced with is lack of oxen to support in the cultivation activity. I have a piece of land that would well support me in providing food for my household but I am not in position to fully utilise it because I don't have my own oxen. I have to hire each time I need to clear a given portion which is expensive for me. For seasons that I have not been able to hire, I use a small hoe for all my garden work which is not convinient."

Bernard
received a $360 second payment.
"I do not have a new goal at the moment. My plan is to start my retails shop business and stabilize it. I want to focus on establishing this project first because I believe it will be the end of looking for casual jobs. Casual jobs are usually very unreliable and families who rely on it as the main source of income suffer a lot. I am tired of this hustle and I can't wait to be independent and self-employed."
