I am planning to start a small business selling second hand clothes and the rest of the transfers I will use to pay for a course in welding at a polytechnic.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is having worked as a fisherman for four years and after saving my wages I have been able to buy three goats.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face right now is lack of a sustainable source of income, fishing is not very profitable this time of the year and so I am unable to afford quite a number of essential items my family needs.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is around midday when I am from the lake, I usually carry home some fish and this makes my family very glad to see me at this time.
