I am very happy to have received this money. I am planning to buy iron sheets for the roof of my house and cement for the floor. I am tired of fetching grass in the bushes to thatch my house. It is also very difficult to sleep in the house during rainy season because it leaks. I also want to buy cement because it is a lot of work for me to get soil for the floor of the house.
What is the happiest part of your day?
In the last six months I have experienced joy during eid festival when my sister sent me some money to buy food. Apart from that all I experience are challenges.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The challenges that I am currently facing are lack of food and lack of a nice sleeping place. The problem of food comes in because I do not have land to grow maize. My husband does not earn enough money to buy enough food for us.
