What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means the burden of paying children's school fees has been lessened, and it will also help me get another woman to assist with the children. At present, I find it real difficult to maitain my children at school due to inadequate money.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning after the night's rest has erased my life worries, just before noon when the difficulties of life strike my mind again.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship faced is paying children's school fees, yet at the same time provide food when they return from school. That's why I am hoping this money will help me acquire a wife to handle children's welfare, as well as meet school demands.
