What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to use my transfer to buy a bull for ploughing because I have been hiring and it's expensive. I also plan to pay college fee for my two children.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that I have educated my children through hard work as my spouse died when our firstborn was only seven years old.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face in life is that I lack money to take my children to college and I feel bad when other children go to school except mine.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I wake a live and well.
