"I am planning to spend my transfer on paying school fees for my two children who are in college and secondary school. I will use part of the transfer to renovate my house which is not in a good state, I will open a shop for my wife so that she can sell food stuffs and to complete the construction of my kitchen so that it can have a roof which will enable my two girls to use it as their sleeping place."
