What are you planning to spend your transfer on?
First,I would like to expand my house inorder to make it bigger so that it can accommodate my expanding family.I will also construct a new pit latrine because the one I own right now is almost collapsing.I will spend the remaining portion on school fees.
What is the achievement you are proudest of?
The achievement I am proudest of is that I managed to build a decent house for my parents with the little money that I used to save when I was working in a clearing and forwarding firm.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I face is that I lack funds that can enable my spouse seek treatment in a good hospital because she has a problem with her lungs hence she needs thorough check up.
What is the happiest part of your day?
The happiest part of my day is in the afternoon when I'm visited by my friends and we share ideas that can help us in our marriage.
