"The biggest difference in my daily life is that I am currently educating my two children who are in high school with alot of ease since I have paid school fees for the with the larger part of my second transfer. I can say that I am in peaceful state of mind since I used to worry on how I could pay school fees for them since I mainly rely on my farm yields as my main source of income and this time around the crops were attack by the crops worm resulting to low yields and a great loss indeed."
