Jacqueline Nyetipei Kiplimo did something that stunned the world during the 2010 Zheng-Kai Marathon when she witnessed a disabled competitor struggling to drink water who was a double amputee. Image
Instead of seeing her moment to run ahead of this struggling athelete, she ran along side of him from the 6.2 mile mark to the 23 mile mark (10km mark to the 38km mark), helping him drink water at all of the watering stations. Image
The aide that she so compassionately provided her fellow competitor slowed her run time down and caused her to loose her first place position and place 2nd in the race — costing her the win and the $10,000 cash prize. Image
Jacqueline Nyetipei Kiplimo showed the world that day that to her, being compassionate and helping one another was more important than winning a race that she had been preparing for her entire life. Image
Now this is what a true leader looks like, one that never leaves someone disadvantaged behind. Image

Looking to Invest in Stock Market? Here is Everything You Should Know sokodirectory.com/2021/11/lookin…

#Thread #MTNIPO
Lots of individuals have no idea what the stock market is; to them, it is just something they see in the business section or news that doesn’t make sense, and for this reason, they have no idea how lucrative it can be #MTNIPO
The knowledge of the stock markets isn’t complete without defining the initial public offering (IPO). An IPO, as the name hints, refers to the first time a private company offers its shares/stock to the public #MTNIPO

What is the worst between these two: IMPUNITY and CORRUPTION?

Impunity: Exemption from punishment or freedom from the injurious consequences of an action.

Corruption: Dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power, typically involving bribery, theft, abuse of power.

THREAD.
For the past 10 years, I have fought both impunity and corruption without fear or favour. @Rein_Asamo and @codida can attest to this. But unfortunately, things have gotten worse instead of better. The good guys aren’t winning that much. The bad guys seem to own the country.
After discussing with @nderi_j on what is worse. Open theft of resources or the ability to break and disregard the law without any consequence with wanton abuse of power, it hit me that IMPUNITY is the most dangerous thing that this GOK has nurtured more than CORRUPTION.
