"Receiving this money means that I will be able to build a home. I will use the transfer to buy a parcel of land and building material which I have not been able to do because the little earning from my business have been going into buying my family food, clothes and medical needs. I shall no longer be paying rent and all my savings would go into purchase of lifestock and expansion of my business."

"I have two children who completed collage in the year 2014 yet they are still unemployed. I was yearning to see my children getting the education that would in turn get them employed and this forced me to sell cattle and a piece of land which i initially used to practice my dairy farming in. All that worries me is when my children will get employed in order for them to survive on their own as well as buy me back the piece of land i had sold earlier to enable me to continue with my farming."
