"There is a piece of land next to my business premise on sale. Being that it's next to where I'm currently operating a business, I need to purchase it so that I can construct more shops for renting out so that I can have additional; source of income. Therefore in the next six months, I have a plan of saving the monthly transfers from GD plus the income that I earn from the business and use it to purchase the land."

"In the next six months, I expect to have bought a cow for rearing so that I can add to the ones that I already have. This will help me raise money for other needs in the family by selling some. I can as well leave them as an inheritance for my children which I know will be of very important to them as we consider cows a source of wealth in my area."

"Currently, I only have a small piece of land where I do farming. Due to the small size, I normally get small produce that can't sustain my family for a year. Therefore, in the next six months of my life, I expect to have saved enough money to purchase a piece of land where I'll be farming."

"In the next six months, I am hoping to have bought a super drum a capacity of 6,000 liters. This will help me harvest rainwater. Besides that, I hope to have bought a few utensils that I had lacked in my household."

"In the next six months l expect to have started my project of cattle farming where by i would have bought sheep."

"These financial support have enabled me construct an iron roofed house that I am currently staying in, which I wouldn't have built had I not received these transfers. Furthermore, I have acquired a bigger mattress and new clothes. Before receiving these transfers I was sleeping in grass thatched hut that could leak whenever it rained and also renovating it, was very costly given the scarcity of grass in our community."

"My biggest hardship currently is sickness. One of my children is sickly and there is no money for treatment."

"Receiving this money means thaf I will go back to the nursing school to upgrade my papers. Right now government wants those who operate clinicks to have a paper in enrolment nursing. This would boost my business as I'm currently selling drugs."

"We have experienced long periods of drought over the past few years.Due to this,we have not had any harvest.Farming is the main economic activity in this area and it is what we depend on both for food and commercial purposes.The drought has made things worse because I have been forced to buy food for my family since my farm cannot produce enough.Without any other source of income,it has strained me alot financially.This is the biggest hardship I have faced"

"After the demise of my husband 17 years ago, Life has been a struggle to me. He left me with six children who were still too young by then. I've struggled alot to meet their needs more so education . Ive sold a larger part of my land which i used to farm initially to pay their school fees. I even ended up engaging in selling illicit brew which landed me in trouble severally times after being arrested by the authorities. The struggle continues since my four children are still in school, two of them in the university and two in secondary school. For me this is the biggest hardship i have faced"
