I can't imagine what qualifications he has to become a goodwill ambassador to a global institution, other than he's an African?? An African voting for another African - who'd've thunk it? "The WHO's new director-general Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus announced the decision at a conference in Uruguay, praising Zimbabwe for its commitment to public health." 'Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus' - now there's a name to conjure with. No wonder they call him 'Dr Tedros'? Honestly you couldn't make up all this ****! http://news.sky.com/story/campaigne...-mugabe-made-who-goodwill-ambassador-11090785

Mugabe's wealth is 10 million from diamonds, don't think he needs the salary, he bought himself some prestige
What were they thinking??? UN draws anger after naming Mugabe goodwill ambassador 21 Oct.`17 - The United Nations faced criticism on Friday after naming Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe a "goodwill ambassador" to promote health causes, despite the country's dire health crisis under his rule.
Reminds me of joke on KMET in the early eighties, when Dr. Demento was there, asking who was the president of Zimbabwe.
On second thought... WHO cancels Robert Mugabe goodwill ambassador role Sun, 22 Oct 2017 - The appointment of Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe prompted a global outcry and wide-ranging condemnation
Sierra Leone is not the only country with diamonds, in Namibia De Beers is pushing back the ocean. and divers are getting paid a fortune to find diamonds in very dangerous waters. Botswana had the highest economic growth in the world since independence for quite a number of years, mainly due to diamond trade. Angola is another country with large diamond deposits I believe the WHO is now reconsidering the Robert Mugabe appointment
