Hiki kisa kimenikumbusha kile cha Mkuu wa Wilaya, Richard Kasesela aliyembeba mwandishi wa habari mmoja huko Iringa, kisha mitandao ya kijamii na vyombo rasmi vya habari vikaja juu kweli.


Mexican television reporter Lydia Cumming was dispatched last week to cover heavy flooding in the central city of Puebla.

The 24-year-old journalist interviewed two residents about how the natural disaster had affected an elderly neighbor.

Then the man and woman carried her through floodwaters to the woman’s house so she wouldn’t get her shoes wet.

Someone snapped a photo and posted it to Cumming’s Facebook page, where it became a meme sensation. It also got Cumming fired.
