UNODC Corruption As Ghada Waly Junket to Vietnam In Long Wasteful Goodbye like Tony G

by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack

UN GATE, Oct 21 –  How corrupt and decrepit has the UN system become under Antonio Guterres, in this case due to Guterres? Today's example is again from Vienna, where the head of UNODC is saying a (too) long goodbye.

  On October 21 UNODC whistleblowers told Inner City Press more:

Dear Matthew Russell Lee:

Waly has traveled from UNODC HQ (her house) in Cairo to Vietnam to fake interest in cyber-crimes, and despite financial crisis in UNODC has shamefully dragged an entourage of 30 plus staffs to announce a new UN cyber-crime treaty supported by authoritarian states.

Her companion are including: two protocol staff to open doors and check lemon water for her, controlling personal secretary Josee Sancoucy, Egyptian MoFA speechwriter Ahmed Maaty, unqualified head of communications Sonya Yee, weak retiring director of treaties John Brandolino, pathetic head of cyber-crime who knows nothing of cyber-crime Glen Prichard, and pathetic former UNODC New York director and now Asia director Delphin Shantz who did nothing but kiss up to Waly for years to make her feel good. Waly's chief of staff Jeremy Douglas wanted to go but stayed for some surgery and nobody feels sympathetic.

Embarrassing Waly does not need to be there for a week, her staff have nothing to do, but she again uses budgets to reward loyalty with first class travel, fancy hotels, per diems, group vacation and selfie photos before she joins corporate boards leaving UNODC bankrupt.

Meantime Waly blocks serious managers she does not like from taking important missions that deal with real crimes and terrorism.  Unsurprising, corrupted Secretary General Antonio Guterres and his team of loyalist will join corrupt USG Waly in Vietnam, because this is what he does.

Entitled Guterres collects air miles and photos with authoritarian leaders and USGs despite UN financial crisis of historic proportions.   Years of Guterres and Waly will be remembered for a trail of mismanagement and financial ruin. 

This is Guterres' UN.

Guterres is the kingpin of the corruption. Turk as a staffer on Guterres' 38th floor did nothing when his boss Guterres had the critical Press roughed up and thrown out. There has been no due process since, not even a response to Guterres' Melissa Fleming to a pro bono inquiry for Inner City Press from the law firm Quinn Emanuel. On June 19, 2025, this re-application. No answer, as of September 20. Watch this site.
