SDNY COURTHOUSE, July 25 – As more and more civilians have been killed by the Cameroon government of Paul Biya, absentee president for 37 years, UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres has been silent. And the UN Security Council has been failing, too.
On July 24, Inner City Press asked the UK's former UN Ambassador - now Ambassador in DC - Karen Pierce, "Why during your tenure at the UN did the UN Security Council do nothing about the slaughter of Anglophones by Cameroon's ruler Paul Biya? What is the UK doing about it? What do you make of UNSG Antonio Guterres ' smiling photo-op with Biya?"
Ambassador Pierce to her credit at least responded: "Cameroon is not on the UN Security Council's agenda, but there have been several serious discussions of events there, held at the UN. The UK has chaired ARRIA meetings on Cameroon and has also sponsored a resolution at the HRC."
Inner City Press has replied / followed up, "Thanks for your response, but I remember from being in the UN - before being ousted and banned b Antonio Guterres on & since 3 July 2018 - that pro-Biya UNOCA Envoy Francois Fall has called"separarists" in British Southern Cameroons as 'extremists.'" We'll have more on this.
Inner City Press was informed by sources in Guterres' own 38th floor office that Guterres had made a deal with Biya's UN Ambassador Tommo Monthe as chair of the UN Budget Committee for administrative favors in exchange for silence on the slaughter or "subduing" of the Anglophone minority.
When Inner City Press asked about it, Guterres used UN Security to rough up Inner City Press right after it interviewed Monthe, and to ban it from entering the UN, 710 days and counting.
On June 12, while Guterres' spokesman Stephane Dujarric refused all questions from Inner City Press as pro-Biya envoy Francois Fall's briefing resulted in UNSG "Press Elements" read by Nicolas de Riviere of the French Mission that did not mention Cameroon, this: the Cameroon army raided Mbokam, a village in Cameroon's North West region. Amateur images taken this afternoon show some persons shot to death and buildings razed to ashes. Unconfirmed reports say 11 persons were killed in the raid. We'll have more on this.
So what Cameroon issues is corrupt Guterres blocking? How about his friend Paul Biya arresting people handing out COVID-19 masks? This has been happening since May, with no answer from Guterres or Dujarric to Inner City Press. Now it it in German media - but nothing from the German Mission to the UN, complicit in Guterres' censorship. The UN (and EU) become more corrupted every day. Watch this site.
On June 2, news that Buea-based journalist Samuel Wazizi a/k/a Samuel Ajiekah Abuwe was killed. According to Equinoxe Television, he died within a few days in detention from wounds and injuries sustained after his arrest - that is, he was killed by Biya's forces. And Guterres' UN has refused each and every question about Cameroon from the Press - Guterres is complicit and corrupt.
On June 3, 4 and 5 Inner City Press asked Guterres and his spokesperson Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming in writing about the killing of Wazizi - no answer at all. On June 4 Inner City Press put the question to Guterres himself as he went from mansion to Mercedes, here - nothing.
On April 30 Inner City Press in writing asked Guterres and his spokespeople Stephane Dujarric and Melissa Fleming questions including about the 14 luxury cars to Biya's cronies - no answer.
On April 20, Inner City Press asked Dujarric, Guterres and others 21 questions including this: "this morning Inner City Press asked [an NGO often invited into Guterres' UN and which for now gives preference to his UN Censorship Alliance] which said it would be 'highly problematic' if Guterres does not include Cameroon in his CAAC report. Why hasn't he to date? Is he still claiming and taking credit for a ceasefire?"
Two days, no answer at all. Only this read out by Dujarric from his penthouse apartment: "we acknowledge the commitment of the President of Cameroon to resolve the conflict in the North‑West and South‑West regions through peaceful means." Video on Facebook; YouTube. Guterres is a corrupt censor,
Now there's widely circulated video a toddler whose mother was killed in Babanki (Kedjom Ketinguh) in Mezam, in the North West region of Cameroon. Soldiers are responsible, and 10 other civilians have been killed. Meanwhile corrupt Guterres and Catarina Vaz Pinto, the First Lady of Faux Socialism, ran right by Inner City Press loud questions about Cameroon on February 29, into the publicly funded mansion Guterres lives in some of the time. Story here with video. He, and it seems they, are corrupt and complicit.
Also: one of the witnesses who exposed the Biya government's mass killing at Ngarbuh, Mallam Danjuma has been killed and dumped in Bui by government forces in Kikaikelaki. And from the UN of Guterres? Nothing. This is Guterres' genocide. He has the only press that ask him about it, even from his propaganda speech at NYC's The New School.
This is Guterres' genocide. Watch this site.
