Mary
received a $23 fifth payment.
"I expect my life to change positively. I expect to have more poultry and a lot of eggs in the next six months. Sometimes I visualize a pickup track coming to pick eggs from my compound; that's how far I intend to grow the poultry work. It is also easier compared to digging farms."

"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life was what I went through when I was a drunkard.I spent most of my time drinking and lived a miserable life.The little I earned from casual labour all drowned to alcohol.This brought conflict with my parents and relatives at home.We did not have enough food to eat and we sometimes slept hungry.I really regret this time of my life since I feel that I wasted it.I am however glad that I am now a changed man and I have my own family."
