What does receiving this money mean to you?
Building an iron roofed house will be the reason/ meaning behind receiving this cash transfer. It will reduce the cost involved in looking for grass and improve on my standard of living. The house so stay in currently I made up of grass and it leaks when it rains which makes my clothes dirty and wet especially when I am not around.
What is the happiest part of your day?
My happiest part of the day is in the evening after a day's work. I go to the nearest center to socialize, which gives me vast information about how the day went. That keeps me updated on my surrounding and the country at large.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship in my life is lack of initial capital that I would invest in business in order to generate more income. I have so many plans of getting money but I lack initial capital that would otherwise support my idea. In amonth, I spent around twenty days without any money at hand which leaves me with worries about my future.
