I am planning to spend my transfer on buying tomatoe seeds that I can plant on my farm, I will also buy four bulls that I can use in ploughing my farm, I will also buy a donkey that I can use as a means of transport for fetching water during dry season and the remaining amount I will spend on buying furniture for my house so that I can have a comfortable home.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that I am proudest of is that I went to college and did accounts in 1989 and I got a job at pan Africa builders and this enabled me to support my sisters by investing in their education.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I have faced in my life is that I was an IDP after the 2007 post election violence in Kenya and I was forced to move back to our rural home and all our property was burnt by rowdy youths.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is when I make ropes using sisal in the morning so that I can sell at the local market. This makes me happy as I am able to supplement my income.
