My new goal in life is to buy a two-wheel machine that people use in tilling the farms. This machine uses less oil hence it will be cheaper compared to hiring a tractor for land preparation purposes. A friend of mine has this machine and when I enquired more about it, one spends less than KES 800 on fuel enough to till one acre of land and this will enable me to save around KES 1200 from the money I would spend on hiring a tractor to till the same size of land. Also, I will be renting it to other people at a fee and use the money to cater to our basic needs.

The training that we received before enrollment was meaningful to me not only during the transfer period but also during my day-to-day activities. Officers enrolled people without discrimination and would even visit one household severally if they did not find anyone at home during their previous visits. I did not see anything that it does not do well.

Our family land is small and it had always been my prayer to buy my own no matter how small it would be. This is because the maize I usually harvest would barely last my family for three months. When I received my first transfer, I spent a good amount from it to pay a down payment toward the purchase of land from my neighbor, and on receiving the second one, I spent KES 20000 to clear the balance. Also, I spent KES 20000 to buy some items that were needed by my inlaws since I had not completed paying my wife's dowry. Apart from this, I used KES 6500 to lease a farm in preparation for planting and spent the remaining amount on food.

I was at the farm working when heard a phone ringing, on checking it was my friend asking me if I had received the transfer I hurriedly hanged up the call to confirm if mine was in, that's when I saw a mpesa notification, I was filled with joy when I saw that I had received the transfer as promised.

My life is different now because I can say that I proudly own a piece of land, thanks to the transfer I was able to realise my dream, I always wanted to own a piece of land but I could not afford it because of lack of funds, I also settled my debtors the money I owned them, therefore, I am at peace with my self and also grateful for the support because it changed my life.

My transfer just came on time when I had seen a piece of land that was being sold, I knew that this was my only chance and perfect timing, When I received my transfer I took Ksh 40,000 and used it in purchasing a piece of land, though it was not the full amount, I am optimistic that with the next transfer I will be able to clear the remaining balance of Ksh 20,000, I used the remaining amount in offsetting my debts.
