"I would like to use part of the transfer to obtain my land which was taken a way by my relatives. Secondly l would wish to dig a borehole since we are stay far from the water source. Finally l would like to use the rest of the money to build a new house because my house is very small and according to tradition l am supposed to build a new house."

"I am planning to spend my transfer on digging a borehole so that we can have water in our compound as getting water is really a problem in a place, I am a preacher and I got sick and we are not allowed to use public means so I will use part of the cash on contributing towards the funds that we are trying to save as a church so that we can buy a vehicle."
