"The biggest hardship I have faced in my life was lack of school fees to cater for my secondary school education. I had to drop out of school and start doing odd jobs and this has made me not to realize my dream of becoming a teacher. "

"The size of land under cultivation is 0.5 acres which is hardly enough to cater for the entire family. The biggest hardship I have faced in life is therefore lack of funds to increase the size of land in order to cater for my family needs comfortably."

"First thing i do in the mornings is prepare breakfast, do house chores especially washing utensils as tea is cooking then make food for my baby. Afterwards, I fetch water for household use and rush off to my daily hustle of washing clothes.
After my work, I get home, groom up and relax as I await to prepare for supper. During my free time I browse alot and hang out with my friends telking stories."

"My top concern is my family because , its the most important unit to me , they hold me down anytime. This might be people talking down on my mother or child and that can affect one in many ways. All my dreams are surrounded by my family, we have gone through a lot as a family especially my mother and that's why their safety comes first.
