Chepkirui
received a $435 second payment.
"I have a 1 acre piece of land that I intend to fence and practice farming on it. I specifically want to plant maize. With the current economy, maize has become so scarce. I can use the maize to pay school fees for my 2 children. I will save the money I would have used to buy maize and use it on constructive things. I can also sell the maize."
