So my plan for this cash when I receive it is, to open a table market right at the front punch of my house because what I have noticed for the years is that more people live across this swamp and no market to even buy little food stuff to cook but rather we are forced to go in the town's market to buy food or other materials for the family."

For this reason, at times my children are put out of school because of no money to pay their fees in time."
