"My mother passed away while giving birth to me and I had to be raised by my grand mother. She managed to raise me properly though I had to drop out of school while in primary level-class 7 due to lack of school fees. This meant growing up without some motherly love and adequate education and now getting a job for myself has been very tough. This for me is the biggest hardship I have ever experienced.
