What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to use my transfer to purchase land for my children who have no space to build because I have a small piece of land . I also plan to plaster my house in order to earn respect from my neighbours and visitors.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that I have a son in college because the rest of my children are lost in alcoholism and have refused to further their education.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I have in life is having to live with children who are drunkards. I am sad that my two sons are a humiliation to me in my community.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I wake up a live and well because I know of people who have died while a sleep.
