What does receiving this money mean to you?
When I receive this money, I will buy a piece of land for my child to inherit in future because I conceived when I was still at school. The man who siered the child rejected the pregnancy and so its me carrying a full burden of the child. The land I'm currently doing agriculture on was just given to me by my parents and not to own. So wigh this money, It will be a great chance for me also to own land. I will also start a business with the remaining money. I am looking at fish mongering as a viable business to sustain my household's income.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the night. Its alway the time I manage to get a meal for my child and he goes to sleep giving me also time to relax.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have faced in my life is lack of money to facilitate basic needs for me and my child. Attimes we can go without a meal and may be I can be forced to beg food from other relatives.
