On United Nations Secretary General in Abidjan, read below and see photos.
Le patron du patron de mon patron s’appelle Ban Ki-Moon. C’est le Secrétaire Général des Nations Unies. Il était de passage à Abidjan ces 23 et 24 avril 2008. A cette occasion, il a honoré le personnel de l’ONUCI de près de quarante minutes de son temps.

Je n’étais pas au premier rang, néanmoins, j’étais présent pour capturer l’atmosphère. Voici quelques photos prises à l’occasion. Comme vous le devinez, j’étais assis juste derrière deux observateurs militaires chinois.

My bosse’s bosse’s bosse’s name is Ban Ki-Moon. He is the Secretary General of the United Nations. He was in Abidjan on 23 and 24 April 2008. On the occasion, he spent almost 40 minutes with UNOCI staff which was a great honour for all of us.

I was not on the first row, but I nonetheless managed to capture the atmosphere of the moment. Here are a few pictures taken on the occasion. As you might guess I was sitting just behind two Chinese military observers.
