Excerpt:

While United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan was patently ignoring a President Robert Mugabe oppressed Zimbabwe, his son, Kojo was making money building the Zimbabwean capitol’s airport.

Mugabe runs the ZANU-PF, a regime that Condoleeza Rice labels an outpost of tyranny.

Why Kojo Annan’s business activities in Zimbabwe have not surfaced in the ongoing probe of the Oil-For-Food Program should surely raise concern about both the integrity and sincerity of the investigation.

It’s a global village as far as Kojo’s business agenda is concerned.

First came West Africa where Annan’s youngest son was working for the Swiss-based Cotecna with ties to the Oil-For-Food Program. While the world was led to believe that Annan Junior came off the Cotecna payroll in 1999, he continued to cash Cotnecna’s cheques until 2004.

Morocco came next when it was revealed that Kojo Annan and Hani Yamani, bona fide Saudi national were negotiating the sale of $60 million worth of oil to a Moroccan company. Yamani is the businessman son of the powerful Sheikh Ahmed Yamani, former Saudi oil minister and OPEC founder.

In Zimbabwe, Kojo Annan and his friend and business confrere Yamani were in bed with Leo Mugabe, nephew of President Robert Mugabe.

Present for key meetings, Kojo Annan was flown to Morroco to close the big oil deal, which for reasons unknown was ultimately abandoned by Yamani.

Here’s how the Zimbabwe deal went down.

Annan is up to his eyeballs (over his head actually) in corruption.
His son is too. The facts keep coming out and coming out. This
is big ... Annan is BEYOND defending. He is an international criminal.

It seems like Kofi's UN is just one big operation to make money for his son! Kofi must go and be criminally charged.

Funny, the left keeps screaming that we need to go through
the UN for everything. They loooooooove to quote Annans
idiotic statement that the war in Iraq is 'illegal' (like ANY war
needs world approval first? ) and yet they are nowhere
to be seen when stories come up uncovering the massive fraud
and massive theft that the UN and Koffi have been up to all
these years. No comments on this thread from the left?
Guess they are hiding under their rocks, with hopes that this
will all just go away or something.

When the time is right, Koffi will step down and let Billary run things directly. Koffi was "pushed" by Clinton, kinda make you wonder huh!
