What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have faced in life is when my fast wife and my daughter died within one year. Both died after being sick for only less than two week. By that time I had no money to even pay for their medical bills.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when i see my wife taking care of my children and going to do casual jobs to get some money to buy food for our family, since I have been sick and unable to work and provide for them.
What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
Am planning to spend my transfer in building a house and start a poultry farming.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that , I have been able to take care of my family, of four member and my old parents. I have managed these from my little earnings as a plumber.
