UN GATE, Jan 22 –
Two issues on
which UN
Sec-Gen
Antonio
Guterres has
not only
failed but
been a
hypocrite -
press freedom
and Cameroon -
have come
together. And
his UN,
including
spokespeople
Stephane
Dujarric and
Melissa
Fleming, have
typically been
silent while
refusing all
Inner City
Press
questions.
Guterres amid
the slaughter
of Angophones
by the army of
octogenarian
Paul Biya went
to Yaounde and
took a golden
statue from
Biya. Then he
had Inner City
Press which
asked about it
banned.
Guterres
had cut a deal
under which he
would stay
silent on
Biya's mass
killings in
exchange for
administrative
favors in the
UN Fifth
(Budget)
Committee,
which Cameroon
was
chairing.
Now
journalist
Martinez Zogo,
the director
of Radio
Amplitude, was
kidnapped on
January 17.
His body was
found four
days later, on
January 21.
And
from the UN,
nothing.
Guterres is
living the
high live in
Switzerland
(as Biya has
so often) and
now Cabo
Verde. We'll
have more on
this.
