What does receiving this money mean to you?
Receiving this money means I will be able to build an iron roofed house, buy a piece of land that I can cultivate. This will support my family especially by way of increasing food production.
What is the happiest part of your day?
I am happiest in the evening when I am seated with friends at the centre. I feel relaxed.
What is the biggest hardship you've faced in your life?
The biggest hardship that I am faced with is inadequacy of farm land. The only piece of land that was given to me by my parents is the one that I depend on. It is too small to accommodate my plans but I have no option. I don't have money that I would otherwise use to buy more land so I am forced to do whatever I have to do within the a vailable limited space. This does not provide room for development.
