Insecure leaders their own worst enemies

NAIROBI: There was a Kingdom known as Alpha. It stood on top of a hill with five other kingdoms forming a circle around it. It was the proverbial shining lamp on the hill for its neighbours.

Alpha was ruled by a king known as Valor. Alpha owed its status to this King’s wise rule. The courts of his Kingdom were always graced by hosts of the King’s men. Valor consulted with his men. He called them his council. His council was not a small circle, but a large host of men from all walks of life.
