UN GATE,
Sept 30 – How corrupt is
today's UN under Antonio
Guterres? Consider South
Sudan, where UN personnel
stand accused of child rape on
which UN spokespeople Stephane
Dujarric and Melissa Fleming
have refused all Press
questions. On October 7 this,
from a UN whistleblower sent
to Inner City Press:
Dear Matthew
Russell Lee,
As shared
informally by UNMISS
administration, the
Secretary-General met with the
U.S. Government today and is
expected to meet with all
SRSGs tomorrow to provide
updates on the
situation.
The Mission
explained that under the
worst-case scenario: 25%
represents the overall
contingency plan; 15%
represents the staff reduction
applied in locations not being
closed; 41% represents
the total civilian staff cuts
across the Mission, including
those from locations being
closed.
However, Mission
leadership appears to be
communicating publicly that a
25% cut will be implemented,
while internally preparing to
implement only the 15%
reduction reportedly approved
by the United Nations —
creating confusion and
mistrust among staff.
There are reports that
administration officials are
advising close associates to
obtain “medical” reports in
order to extend their stay in
the Mission and avoid being
affected by the cuts. Others
with pending sexual
exploitation and abuse (SEA)
allegations — or anticipating
possible complaints — are
reportedly seeking ways to
extend their contracts under
the pretext of ongoing
investigations.
The UN
Mission in South Sudan is now
widely perceived as being
without effective leadership,
leaving staff feeling
directionless — like a ship
adrift without a captain.
Guterres,
they say, should end
censorship. Application was
made on June 19, 2025, here.
Still as of October 7 no
answer at all from Melissa
Fleming or Stephane Dujarric.
Totally corrupt. Watch this
site.
