I plan to spend the transfer to pay school fees for my grandchildren who are ooh arms. I also plan to spend the transfer to start a business.I also plan to spend the transfer to buy oxen plough and bulls for farming.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that I have been able to build a house for my family and also have managed to take care of the orphans who I support.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced in life is when two of my daughters and son died and left orphans who I take care of. I don't have a reliable source of income to pay school fees for them being that I am just a peasant farmer. I struggle a lot to pay their fee balances but I am overwhelmed.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when am able to get food for my family.
