"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, I am happy because of being one of the beneficiaries. I am in the process of constructing my house that I thought I would die without owning one. Before, I used to live a miserable life being a widow, life was not simple. I sleep in a grass thatched leaky house that lacks the comfort needed for an individual."

"My life is different because I own an acre of land which will enable me farm in large quantities. Previously, I had only one garden which limited my farming thus affecting food production for the family."

"I expect in the next six months to have complete my house. I will manage this using the saving I have in our table banking and the transfers."

"My life has changed in that, I'm now constructing a permanent house. Currently, I stay in an old thatched house which is a haven for rats that have always destroyed our clothes and eaten our feet. In addition, these rats harbour lice that feast on our blood and deny us peaceful sleep. Previously, I didn't have the money to commence with the construction of the permanent house."

"My life is different in that I would not be in position to acquire the two bulls that will help me in the issue of agriculture. Formally, I used to hire oxen for ploughing which required me to wait on other people hence late farming and poor harvest leading to insufficient foodstuff in my home. Now that I have my own oxen this will not require me to wait on other people leading to timely ploughing and a proper harvest."

"My life has improved because I'm sleeping in a beautiful permanent house. Before, I could not continue with the project of building because I had other pressing needs like paying school fees for my 6 children who are in private schools. In addition, I have gained confidence and respect in my community. Before, some people could mock me and I lost confidence."

"The biggest difference in my daily life is that, I have gained self esteem because I have started constructing my permanent house. Previously, I was over looked because I was sleeping in a grass thatched house that I had to renovate on yearly basis."

"From the day I received the transfer, my daily life has experienced a remarkable turn around in that, I'm always joyous. This is because, I repossessed my land, bought a mattress and bed which I was not able to in the past when I had no money. Those days I just used to worry a lot over them."

"In the next six months, I expect to build a new house in my own compound. I have been living in my fathers compound and could not do much in terms of personal development because space was limited. My sons will have enough space to build their own houses and will not be forced to ask for a place to spend their night from the neighbours anymore."

"The moment I received my first cash transfer, I felt happy because I had received money for paying school fees and court fees for my children and regaining ownership of my land respectively."
