Thomas received a $475 third payment.
"I have always hoped of giving my children the right education for their success hence I spent the larger part of my third transfer on paying school fees for my three children who are in high school and that was the happiest point of my life as a parent since all my children were going to school without being sent home for school fees. The remaining transfer also plastered the floor of my house and fixed two steel windows too."
