What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to buy some building materials like timber,sand,iron sheets and nails so that I can build my own house since I don't have one.I am also planning to use part of the money to pay dowry for my wife.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement I am proudest of is that I own two goats that I bought through my job as a fisherman.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
My biggest hardship is that I cannot afford to buy seeds and fertilizers for farming due to lack of funds.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when fishing because I enjoy the fresh air from the lake as I catch fish and it's also fun.
