"This transfer means that I will buy land and establish my homestead. My family currently lives in the in-law's compound where we do not have peace. Family feuds are common so we need our own homestead to have peace. I also intend to three heifers to keep as a saving for the family. My life will really change positively in terms of income cohesion."
