"Excluding the past two years, I have been living in abject poverty for the better part of my marriage life. During those times, we used to skip one meal a day, my kids being sent out of school dues to fee arrears and literally buying all sorts of household items. This was because together with my husband, we used to solely depend on casual jobs to cater for the basic needs of the family. The jobs were unreliable and the little we got could not satisfactorily fend for all of us."
