Integrity At Risk: Understanding The True Cost Of Corruption
Loading player...
In this episode of Ziwani’s RISK series, host Doreen Zaki sits down with Valentine Gitoho – Kenya’s first female chartered accountant and a woman whose extraordinary 45-year career has spanned continents and countless crises. Valentine shares some of the moments that defined her – from refusing to open a company safe at gunpoint, to walking away from a prestigious promotion in pursuit of purpose.
Exploring how corruption quietly corrodes not only institutions in the here and now, but families and communities for generations to come, Valentine reminds us that 'doing what is right' doesn’t start with systems or governments. It starts with you and me. Every choice, every transaction, every act of honesty or compromise shapes the world we live in.
Their conversation is more than a commentary on risk – it's a call to rediscover the kind of integrity that outlasts fear, outshines profit, and ultimately reshapes the future of leadership in Africa.
