UN GATE, Jan 28 –
UN Secretary General Antonio
Guterres first threw the
investigative Press out of the
UN, then even to the pliant
state media he left in,
canceled his scheduled press
conference on January 28.
Instead he held a closed door
meeting - which banned Inner
City Press live-streamed (I,
II, III)
and now posts portions of on
YouTube, here.
Now on
January 31, UN system staff
who have gotten no response
from Guterres and his
spokespeople have written to
Inner City Press: "Dear Mr.
Lee, Below is a brief
email to senior leadership
team on the subject matter in
Mogadisgu. We have written and
written kindly you are surely
our saviour. Many
thanks:
To UN officials and
spokespeople including kaneko

Subject: Witch craft in
office
Dear Senior Leadership
Team, It would be nice
to protect our lives in
Mogadishu.Whereas we are under
tense operation in the field
our field leadership team in
particular program Director -
Ms. Qurat - Ul-Ain Sadozai is
busy practicing witch craft in
office. We are a mixed
community here and its very
unfortunate that this issue
has been brought to senior
leadership team but with no
solution. Please we kindly
request quick attention over
this woman we can no longer
stand this in a public
office. Witch craft is
an out dated method of keeping
jobs we need help
please! UNMAS Staffs
from Somalia Field
Office." We'll have more
on this.
After Guterres'
closed door meeting, and ten
hours before this publication,
Inner City Press in writing
asked UN Spokesperson Stephane
Dujarric and Melissa Fleming,
"January 28-2: On SG Guterres'
statements at his January 28
Town Hall, and that questions
to him, what is his response
to and action if any on the
questions from staff in Addis
Ababa, about the lowest paid,
least secured people working
for the UN?
January 28-3: On
SG Guterres' statements at his
January 28 Town Hall, and that
questions to him, what is his
response to and action if any
on the questions about "UNOPS
contracts" and (from Brindisi)
on outsourcing?"
Ten hours, no
answers, despite Dujarric's on
camera promise, and written
promises from Fleming's
department. Instead, she does
propaganda interviews with in
house scribes. We'll have more
on that, and this expanding
corruption. Watch this site.
