What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
I am planning to build a house, buy household items and if possible start a small business. The business will involve selling clothes.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement that I am proudest of is having worked at a hotel in Nairobi.

The biggest hardship I have is lack of a steady source of income, the odd jobs I get are very few and the payments I get hardly sustain me.

The happiest part of the day is in the evening when I am taking a meal with my children and my co-wife, we have a lot of fun.
