What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to spend my transfer on starting a business of selling fish in the market, we will spend part of it on paying dowry as my husband will buy two cows that he will take to my parents back in our village and the remaining amount I will spend on building a small house for my eldest son who is now a grown up and needs to stay on his own.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that I am proudest of is that I have been able to plant vegetables like kales on my farm and they have usually grown healthy and marketable when I take them to the market to sell them.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face in my life is that our kids are always sent home due to lack of school fees and this really makes me depressed as the little money that we get from our casual jobs cannot be enough to buy food and also pay for their school fees.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is when I go out in the morning to look for a some casual jobs like sand harvesting, I feel happy when my employer for that day gives me work and pays me in the evening.
