UN GATE, Oct 31 –
With Ghana taking over
presidency of the UN Security
Council on November 1, 2022,
on October 21 Inner City Press
wrote to the Ghana Mission to
the UN to request in advance
access to its Novemer 1 press
conference by Ambassador
Harold Adlai Agyemanthe.
To submit
the request, Inner City Press
went to the Ghana Mission
profile on Twitter, on which
the Mission follows
@InnerCityPress, and clicked
through to the Mission's
website. There, under Contact
Us, it claimed there was a
form. But there wasn't, only
an email address:
info@ghanamissionun.org.
So Inner City
Press wrote there - and
received,
"<info@ghanamissionun.org>:
The e-mail message could not
be delivered because the
user's mailfolder is full."
So Ghana
is taking over the UN Security
Council tomorrow, amid its
failures on the Black Sea
Grain Initiative and
peacekeepers' rapes -- and its
website misstates that there
is a form, and its lone public
mailbox is full.
Not an
auspicious beginning. Inner
City Press has sent the
request to two other Ghana
Mission addresses which did
not bounce back, and results
of which (or addresses) we
will soon publish.
Inner City
Press asked the Ghana Mission,
and the UN, about the MONUSCO
scandal - sex for UN Volunteer
jobs paid with taxpayers'
funds - in the DRC Congo.
Inner City Press exclusive here.
This while
Inner City Press is banned
from entry, which it had for
years until it exposed UN
corruption. No response to this
appeal. Impunity.
Inner City
Press will be covering the
Ghana presidency, quite
actively, this month.
Our
requests and questions remain;
we will publish any responses,
and also on non-responses.
