What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
We are planning to buy sand, cement, timber, round poles, nails and iron roofing sheets which we will use to build a house at our ancestral land.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is having given birth to my two beautiful children, they mean quite a lot to me.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that we face right now is that we lack our own house, whenever we try to save some money to build a house, we often end up spending it on essential items for our household. This means that we may continue living in a rented house
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the evening when I am chatting with my family and friends, we often chat and relax, this helps us unwind after a hectic day.
