This money means a lot to me. I haven't been moving around a lot waiting to be enrolled in the project. I went to school up to Form 4 in secondary school but did not get good points. As such, I would like to use the money to go back to school. I will work hard to get good points. I would like to become a teacher in future. On top that, I plan to buy goats to raise which I will sell in future. I will also buy iron sheets to put a new roof on my house because it is made of grass. Not forgetting to buy a bicycle which will be used as a mode of transport when going to the hospital. I always borrow a bike from neighbors when going to the hospital and sometimes they deny to give it to me and leave me with no choice but to walk.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am happiest whenever I celebrate my children's birthday. I do small parties for them.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face is hunger. The soil on my farm requires fertilizer. Since I don't have enough money to buy fertilizer, I end up having low yields.
