What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I plan to build a bigger house to accommodate my family and also build a kitchen. I also plan to buy beddings, mattress, table and water storage drums. I also plan to use part of it to buy a cow.

The achievement that I am proud of is that I have managed to pay school fees for my daughter up to form four level.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?

The happiest part of my day is in the evening after work when I manage to get food for my family.
