What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to build a house for my elder son because he has become of age and tradition requires that he has his own house, invest in livestock farming for financial security and renovate my house because it's old.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is that I have a good house that I built using funds from sand harvesting.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face in my life is poor health. I am ailing and therefore not in a good position to work as hard as I used to.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the morning when I am at work because I know at the end of the day I'll have something to help feed my family.
