What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to expand my house because it's too small for my large family, and boost my fish vending business so as to generate more income.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that I am a dedicated mother to my children because my spouse spends alot of time away from home and so I live like a single parent who must ensure that her children eat and go to school.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face in life is lack of money. I have no proper source of income and my marriage is not working well.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when at work interacting with my colleagues. Sometimes I get to learn a lot of good things from them and that makes me very happy.
