In Cameroon Biya Tortures Musician For Criticism UN Guterres Complicit Bans Press Which Asks

By Matthew Russell Lee, CJR PFT NYP

UN GATE, Feb 3 – Cameroon's 38 year ruler Paul Biya, propped up by France and now for three years by corrupt UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres who cut a deal with Biya for his support as chair of the UN Budget Committee, on New Years Eve made threats to kill more people.

  And from Guterres, who had been missing from New York for three weeks, similar to Biya's long convalescences in Geneva? Nothing. Absolute silent. And no answers by his spokespeople Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming, who continue Guterres' ghoulish ban on Inner City Press even entering the UN to ask questions.  They have refused Inner City Press' daily written questions on Cameroon, but even from the UN Gate we are still asking about this, on February 3: "The passport of Cameroon's makossa legend, Longue Longue is seized, for criticising the government, he is tortured, arrested After his released he makes series of public apology in live shows and online videos, then his passport is returned as 'a gift' in a Douala campaign rally." This is the CameroUN of Paul Biya, emboldened by corrupt Antonio Guterres on the increasingly corrupt UN.

  This was from Biya's speech, robo tweeted out by others just like Guterres' saccarine feed, on Biya's Twitter account from which Biya's like any dictator bans Inner City Press and others. Guterres' spokesman Stephane Dujarric also blocks Inner City Press, despite having promised on camera to answer its questions. Both will fall in 2020. But for the UN to be run by a corrupt censor? This is a new low. It is UNacceptable.

  Also still no answer or path to re-entry from from Melissa Fleming as she entered a decadent Wall Street event while the UN cut rations to refugees in Libya, on which she bans the Press that asks. Wall Street video here (Fleming halfway through), and separately Dujarric here. UNacceptable.

Inner City Press live tweeted the shameful May UNSC session and uploaded Guterres' envoy Francois Fall's failing statement here.
