Receiving this money will make me happy because I have plans that needed money. Firstly, my house, I have plans of making it bigger by doing extra rooms for us to live comfortably. Secondly, as a farmer, farm inputs like fertilizers, pesticides and seed are usually insufficient due to lack of money. But with this money I will be able to do all this.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I harvested groundnuts and peagion peas and when I sold these I managed to get some money that helped me solve most of my financial problems. This made me happy.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship I face is the lack of money. For food, clothes and comfortable living. This is because we harvest less because of lack of money for farm inputs so what we produce is barely enough for food let alone selling to carry us through the year.
