Kofi Junior Paid "Hush Money"

Look, Halliburton is going to just have to step into the pitch and take one for the team on this. They're going to have to claim that they were somehow involved with Kojo Annan-- that's the only way to whet our fair-and-unbiased media's appetite for this outrageous scandal:

A Swiss company that won a lucrative U.N. oil-for-food contract agreed to continue paying U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan's son for four years after he resigned because he possessed "sensitive information," about its operations, The Post has learned.

A copy of the controversial "no-compete," agreement between Annan's 29-year-old son, Kojo, and Cotecna Inspections SA β€” which led to payments of $2,500 a month until February of this year β€” was turned over to congressional committees under a recent subpoena and reviewed by The Post.

...

Kojo, who now lives in Nigeria, could not be reached, and the United Nations is refusing further comment on his business activities.
