What do you plan to do with the cash transfer?
I plan to cow at £405 which will give milk for both domestic use and selling to raise money for catering for basic needs in the home. I also choose to buy land worth £810 which will help us crops for food security and stop getting worried of how to get food for a long period of time.
Then the balance of £675 will help me pay school fees for my children at school and purchase furniture and beddings for all of us.
What is the happiest part of your day?
Something that made happy in the last six months is when I my sister the hospital in a bad condition but with GOD'S grace, we left the hospital when she is healed
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest problem we are facing is poverty which doesn't enable us to meet good treatment when we fall sick and we cannot even have good feeling where by we only have meals a day.
Another challenge we encounter is lack of school fees for children which makes them study irregularly and register poor performance.
