"The biggest hardship I face now is lack of land. My family owns only this compound where we live. It's very expensive to rent land for farming every planting season."

"The biggest hardship I have right now is that my wife died and left me with three young children, I therefore have to look after them and also go fishing in the lake, this means I sometimes leave them in the homestead alone. This is not safe for them but there is nothing I can do about it."

"My proudest achievement is having worked as a fisherman and saved my earnings which I then used to build two kiosks. I then rented one kiosk and started a small business selling fast moving consumer goods in the other."
