In a month I usually get approximately KES. 9,000. In some occasions where we receive adequate rainfall I have bananas which I can sell and get upto KES.20,000.I have been doing all this for some years now but used the cash to pay for school fees. I recently started to build a new house and this Give directly transfers is a greater boost to me.I plan to spend the entire transfers to purchase iron sheets."
