The fact that Prof. Anna Tibaijuka was unceremoniously ditched by Ban Ki Moon from the UN Habitat office in Nairobi tells the whole story. There were allegations of tribalism and misuse of UN funds while she was in Nairobi. Somehow the comprise was to release her from the post in a more respectable way given the support Tanzania had thrown to making Ki Moon the UN General Secretary. As usual, she put up a fight to remain there!
Her murky past has reared its ugly head at the most inopportune of times burying her presidential aspirations in the process. She is surprised to learn her persuasive powers are this much ineffective to sway even those who were in her presidential team!
