What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to use the transfer on building a better bigger house and starting a business that will help me generate more income to sustain my family.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement we are proudest of is being able to build our current small iron roof house after the one we had which was thatched roofed, burnt down.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship we are facing currently is finding ways to feed the family.The farm is not doing so well due to much sun which brings drought in the long run.We also own small piece of land that cannot allow large scale farming.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I get an opportunity to go by the lake and purchase some fish which I later sell to earn some small profit,I use the profit to buy food and other items for my family.
