"Building that house has cost me 1.42 million, inclusive of everything, from furniture to a water tank. Then the tractor cost me KSh 316,000 to build its shed. I bought the tractor at KSh 142,000.
I was not only doing housework. My employer was a lecturer at Baghdad University, as I told you. Towards the end of the term, she would come with the exam papers in six boxes and ask me to arrange them for her. After that, she would pay me KSh 142,000. She would do that like four times a year," she shared.

Asking loan of KSh 800,000

Akinyi built the house in 2020, adding the previous house in which her grandma and her children lived in was falling apart.

"When that house had fallen to the ground, I asked my employer to loan me KSh 800,000, and she accepted. So she gave me the money, and I started the building project as I worked to pay the loan. She gave me a waiver of about KSh 270,000. She has helped me," the Kakamega lady praised her boss.
