UN GATE, Dec
2 – In the United
Nations from which SG Antonio
Guterres has banned Inner City
Press 883 days for asking
about his complicity in the
killing of civilians in
Cameroon, poisoning them in
Haiti with cholera and COVID
in South Sudan, and their mass
imprisonment by China in
Xinjiang, on November 30 Inner
City Press wrote to the
Mission of South Africa, as
incoming UN Security Council
president, with questions
including about Western
Sahara, Haiti, Yemen and
Cameroon.
Inner City
Press specifically asked to be
provided the WebEx codes to be
able to ask its questions. No
answer.
But when
South Africa's self-described
bureaucrat Jerry Matjila took
questions, his spokesman took
them in groups of three --
without protest from the
increasingly pathetic UNCA UN
press corpse -- allowing
Matjila to evade even the
questions that were asked.
No one allowed in
asked about Cameroon, just the
way Guterres wants it.
And
on December 2 to a group of
insider NGOs Matjila,
low-talking, on Cameroon
praised the failed work of
Antonio Guterres, claimed that
ECOWAS or ECCAS is keeping an
"eagle eye" on Cameroon and
that the UN Security Council
is acting appropriately on it.
Video here, including the
lines "the Secretary General
in his wisdom is taking the
responsibility to help
[inaudible] Paul Biya." He also
claimed there are agreements
on language and region(s).
No one
called him on it. UN world, in
the era of Guterres, is more
and more decrepit.
Would South
Africa's former Ambassador
Kumalo, no bureaucrat at all,
have colluded in this
Secretary General's censorship
of Press? The answer is
clearly no. This is shameful.
This too:
during Matjila's "press"
conference, the Program of
Work was not even on the
website of the UNSC. Still
Inner City Press, which will
report all month about the
UNSC with or seemingly without
any Matjila or South African
bureaucracy access, notes for
example "Central Africa" -
that would / should be
Cameroon - on December 9, DRC
on Dec 7, Yemen on Dec 14,
South Sudan Dec 15,
Afghanistan Dec 17, and Syria
Dec 21.
On Western
Sahara, Matjila cravenly
praised Guterres' supposed
effort on naming a UN envoy,
on which Guterres has failed
for more than a year. This
President is a letdown on
Western Sahara.
Inner City Press live tweeted
the Press-less presser, here,
and streamed some, here.
When Guterres'
spokes- / hatchetman Stephane
Dujarric holds his noon
briefings this month while
refusing all questions from
Inner City Press despite an on
camera promise.
And South Africa and
"bureaucrat" Matjila? We'll
report.
