What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
First,I would like to fence my compound in order to prevent wild animals from destroying my crops. I would also like to build an extension so that I have an extra room where my children can sleep.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that l own a fishing business that has really helped me alot. Through this business, I have managed to send my children to school.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
I would say, raising school fees is my biggest hardship because the little I'm earning from my business is not enough to cater for school fee as well as to feed my children.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when I return home with food that my family can eat.
