I am planning to spend my transfer on buying ten iron sheets using the first transfer and then I will add the second transfer so that I can build a house for my family. I will spend the final transfer on buying two dairy cows for my family.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that I am proudest of is that I had bought ten iron sheets using cash that I got from doing casual labor on people's farms which I intend to build my house with.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face in my life is that I don't have a stable source of income and this has forced me to send one of my children to go and stay with my relatives as I am not capable to provide basic needs for all my children.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is when I go to my farm in the morning to plough it. This makes me happy as when I eventually harvest the crops, I will be able to feed my family.
