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

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.
