"During the five years, I saved money, and we started building in December. I actually had a previous house, but I now wanted a big one that could accommodate me and my family, which is why I started saving for this new house," she said.

Anyango said the previous house is now her kitchen, and the family has ample space in the new house she has built.

"My husband works as a boda rider while I work in a small shop here at home, so if anything goes bad on his end, we always have something," she said.
