Yahoo! News - UN staff ready historic no-confidence vote in Annan:
"UNITED NATIONS (AFP) - UN employees are expected to issue an unprecedented vote of no confidence in Secretary-General Kofi Annan, union sources say, after he pardoned the body's top oversight official over a series of allegations.

The UN staff union, in what officials said was the first vote of its kind in the more than 50-year history of the United Nations, was set to approve a resolution withdrawing support for the embattled Annan and senior UN management. "
 
Comments:
Hey.... don't mess with my boy Kofi. He's a Sloan alum and deserves to be cut some slack for a very difficult political position.
