Rose
received a $486 second payment.
"I spent my transfer on buying sand and cement which was used in plastering my house since it was earth floored and mud walled and needed constant repairing by smearing with cow dung. I then bought new seat cushions for my seats since the ones I had were very old and worn out. I then spent the rest on buying a sack of corn for my family's daily feeding."
