There is nothing worse than the double standards and impunity we see in Nigeria based on ethnic/religious affiliation. I will always stand for justice, whether for the North or South, and will not be intimidated by people who use such double standards when the issue is Ndigbo!

I've always taken this personal approach to fairness. In @UN I rejected impunity based on race or nationality. In @cenbank I stood up for fairness regardless of ethnicity.

During my career as @UN official I served, on appointment by Sec-Gen Kofi Annan as a member of the High Level Redesign Panel on the UN Internal Justice System that overhauled the accountability and transparency framework that governs UN staff and management worldwide.

This was a core component of UN management reforms in the 2000s. Members of the Redesign Panel: Mary Gaudron, Justice of the Supreme Court of Australia, Chair; Louise Otis, Justice of the Court of Appeals, Canada; Prof. Ahmed El Kosheri (Egypt), Former Judge Ad Hoc,

International Court of Justice at The Hague; Diego Garcia Sayan, former Foreign Minister of Peru; Kingsley Moghalu (Nigeria); UN system senior staff member. This system, which includes the establishment of the UN Dispute Tribunal, a mediation mechanism, and the Office of the UN

Ombudsman, remains in place to this day and is the governing accountability, transparency and dispute resolution framework for @UN , @UNDP, @UNICEF and @Refugees management and staff worldwide.
