UNSG
Guterres Covered For Sex Abuse
Onana Now To Promote Him While
Still Banning Press
By Matthew

UN GATE, May 12
– Before one of UN
Secretary General Antonio
Guterres' trips
to the Central African
Republic, where he covers up
UN sexual abuse, Inner City
Press asked him about that
abuse, and about the UN's
inaction on mass killings in
neighboring Cameroon. Guterres
purported to answer on the
former, and "didn't hear" the
15-second question on Cameroon.
(Then Guterres' Department of
Global Communications
two days later threatened
Inner City Press'
accreditation, see below.)
On October
24, 2017 once Guterres was in
CAR, Inner City Press asked
deputy spokesman Farhan Haq if
Guterres in CAR would meet
with Mr. Renner Onana, named
as a bad actor in the
independent panel of experts'
report on its sexual abuse in
CAR. Video here.
On November 3, Inner City
Press asked Guterres' Victims'
Rights Advocate Jane Connors
about the report and Onana.
She never answered on Onana,
and emphasized that the
panel's report was not a UN
report. She said her work is
forward looking, apparently
with nothing in it for the
many victims ignored and
covered up in the wake of the
UN scandal involving fired
whistleblower Anders Kompass
and promoted coverer-up Renner
Onana.
So on October 25,
2017 - still not yet thrown
out of the by by Antonio
"Cover Up" Guterres, Inner
City Press asked Haq again,
noting it had found online a photo
of Renner Onana, with a
promotion, greeting Fabrizio
Hochschild, a main adviser to
Guterres. Haq said he was
still checking - this just
after he'd said Guterres is
working on freedom of
information - and that Onana
might still be employed by the
UN but on leave. How hard was
it to find out? Either the UN
for some reason can't find
out, or doesn't want to say.
Because when Inner City Press
asked again on October 26,
still no answer. Video here.
From the October 26 transcript;
UN's October 27 transcript
Now in May
2024, Onana - still getting
paid taxpayers' money by
Antonio Guterres, is the
subject of a formal staff
complaint for abuse, and Onana
is reportedly about to receive
yet another promotion as COS
(D2) MINUSCA - in the Central
African Republic where Antonio
Guterres ever more effectively
covers up child rapes, banning
the Press that asks. Watch
