I am planning to buy farm inputs like seeds and fertiliser. I will also use part of the transfers to pay school fees for my son who is in secondary school.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
My proudest achievement is having saved money that I earned from fishing and eventually managing to pay dowry. I am also educating my children and my son is right now in secondary school.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face right now is lack of a sustainable source of income for myself, fishing is not as lucrative as before and this means that my income has diminished.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is around midday when I am through with my work, I usually get to relax as I have a meal together with my family.
