What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means I will be able to build an iron roofed house, pay school fees for my children and buy a motorcycle that will ease movement.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I happiest in the evening when I am listening to news over the radio. I am updated.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I am faced with is taking care of the education needs of my children. My children really love studies but I am not in position to fully provide for them. Some times they are sent back home especially when I faile to raise money to pay school fees. Being a polygamous family, my husband has a little more responsibility. His income is not enough to sustain the need so as a mother, I feel pressured to provide. I sell agricultural harvest to raise money.
