"The biggest hardship in my life is that, I stress myself a lot to do casual work in order to get what to eat. That leaves me with little time to dig in my own land hence inadequate food at my household."

"Receiving this money means that, I will settle down in my own family. That is because I currently stay in my ancestral home and because I have produced at home, I need to buy for them their own land which will be relief for me."

"The moment I received the money, I felt very happy. This is because it came at a time when I was too broke."

"The biggest hardship I face is poverty. Iam always trying to move up and down looking after people's animals inorder to raise money for providing other essential basic needs like food, clothing to my self,so I donot have time to cultivate crops hence lacking food to eat every year."

"Givedirectly money will enable me build a permanent iron-roofed house that can provide wide space and accommodation for my family.I have been sleeping under a very small grass -thatched roof with no good space to accommodate my household property and members, it forced me to keep some items with neighbours and most of them have got lost. "

"I was over whelmed my joy the moment I received this transfer, because I knew that I was going to address my most pressing needs."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of money to fulfill my dream. It haunts me whenever I see my peers who completed school successfully doing some work from the skill they acquired from school. I also want to like them and have my own skill."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of enough money to fully facilitate my household's basic needs. This is mainly because most money is spent on rent and buying food."

"I am planning to save some more towards buying more building materials like tiles to beautify my house. I also want to save some money to use in paying school fees for my children so that they get to concentrate on their studies well and not be sent home due to lack of it."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, I have managed to clear all my debts and recover my pieces of land which were given out as security. I addition, household items like beddings and utensils have been acquired too. Before receiving this transfer, I had a burden of how to clear my debts and ensure that my pieces of land are recovered."
