Receiving this money will enable me to complete paying this year's school fees for my children. I will then use the remaining part of the transfer to build a new house and incase im left with some amount, i will buy household items and food for my family
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am always happy in the morning whenever all members of my family wakes up healthy since this motivates us to engage in our daily activities as planned.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
My husband who is a casual worker struggles alot in catering for the needs of our family.I have always yearned to open a cerials business to enable me get some income to support him but this wish has been rendered futile due to lack of capital. This has made us lag behind in that we are not capable of starting bigger and productive project that could have enabled us to prosper in future as a family hence this is the biggest hardship we have faced
