UN GATE,
June 27 – How corrupt is the
UN under Antonio Guterres?
Well, Inner City Press has
repeatedly reported on UNFPA's
Natalia Kanem and her misuse
of taxpayers' funds for her
son - and now, sexual abuse
promoted by UNFPA. From
sources to Inner City Press,
which Guterres's spokespeople
Stephane Dujarric and Melissa
Fleming refuse to answer:
Hello Inner City
Press, The information below
and the evidence
attached,about Natalia Kanem,
UNFPA Executive Director, has
been brought to the attention
of OIOS but as usual they
might try to look the other
way, as if it doesn’t matter.
So, this must be brought to
the attention of the public
and especially the member
states who are apparently
paying lip service to the
‘zero tolerance’ slogan.
This is clearly a case of
corruption, high ethical
misconduct and sexual
predation. We shall see if the
UN high command will again
sweep this under the carpet.
The hypocrisy is
breathtaking.
Conflict of Interest by the ED
of UNFPA -
How Natalia Kanem
Made UNFPA Pay $10,000 for her
Son's Vacation We
have information for you in
relation to Case number
OIOS/0519/24. Further to the
many stories now circulating
about the conflict of interest
by Natalia Kanem in her misuse
of power and role as Executive
Director of UNFPA. We have
proof from whistle blowers
about her son, Mandela
Gregoire. If this is true, it
is a very bad misconduct of a
high order and should be
accordingly treated We
get information showing that
UNFPA money was used to pay
for Mandela's vacation trip in
December 2019, for the ‘Year
of Return' celebrations in
Ghana. It look like normal
thing, and no one should
normally criticize someone for
vacation. But the problem is
the vacation was paid by UNFPA
money.
We have
reliable information saying
his travel expenses, hotel,
and chauffeur were paid by
UNFPA funds, because of his
mother's orders. It is not
clear why or how this
happened, because he is not
staff and he did not work for
the organization. It is
important to investigate if
this action follow the
organization's rules. We
have evidence, like the hotel
invoice, showing that the
expenses were billed to UNFPA.
More
worrying is a young female
intern from the UNFPA office
in Ghana, who stay with him
during his visit, maybe for
sexual reasons, because he is
the ED's son. Surveillance
video from the hotel proves
this fact. The power between a
young intern and the ED's son
is bad for possible sexual
exploitation.
Also,
information we have shows that
Mandela was introduced to the
country office by Dr. Kanem
herself, which goes against
her promise to fight sexual
exploitation and harassment.
In the case, she aid and abet
it When investigating
this misconduct, it is not
good to only ask people like
the Country Representative and
Deputy Representative at that
time, because they might not
tell all truth.
The former
Country Representative in
Ghana, Mr. Edward Ojuolape,
who managed this, is close to
Natalia Kanem, having work as
her Chief of Staff before, and
she call him 'my son’. He
might hide important
information. The former Deputy
Representative, Madam Erika
Goldson, another close person
because they are both from
Caribbean, might also not want
to share important details.
