Receiving this money to me means that I will have a decent house. Since my house got destroyed, I have always wished I got money to start a business so I use the proceeds from there to repair it. This is like a dream come true. I will start off a powerful business to use the profits to repair my house and make is habitable again.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The last six months fall within the time that we had the Cyclone Anna destroy our property. There were a lot of organizations that came in to help us. One organization specifically gave us maize and beans and this was the happiest moment of my life because I was so in need and the help came at a right time. I was so joyous during this time.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
Right now the challenges that I am facing range from lack of food, indecent accomodation and lack of clothes to lack of peace of mind. I am a family man and I have to provide for my family but I am unable to because my Kabanza business can't cater for all needs that are to be met.
