In
Cameroon Biya Army Makes
Election A Joke While Guterres
Covers Up At AU Silent on
Rapes
By Matthew
Russell Lee, CJR PFT NYP
UN GATE, Feb 8 –
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 now
those threats
are making a
mockery of
his so-called
municipal and
legislative elections as
Biya's army has
stepped
up its
raids on
villages in
the Anglophone
North
West and South
West regions. In
Teze, Ngie
subdivision,
Momo division,
for example
many
inhabitants
have fled
their homes.
How to vote?
Guterres,
meanwhile, is
pontificating
at the AU,
without a word in his
speech or
"press
conference"
about
Cameroon. He
is corrupt.
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
see Inner City
Press February
4 radio Q&A
here,
about Cameroon
from Minute 32. It
also covers
Guterres' Gulbenkian
/ Partex oil links
he bans Press
for.
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.
More
here.
