Judith
received a $23 twelfth payment.
"I would like to organize on how to pay dowry so that my marriage can be customarily recognized. In our community, before dowry is fully settled, the marriage is deemed illegal. My husband lacks proper income to raise money to buy some cattle as dictated by our culture and tradition. I love my marriage so much and therefore would try to save so that in the next six month, the marriage can be legalized."
