Head of WFP in Somalia covers up on Al Shabbab selling WFP food in Somalia

WFP is involved in another scandal these days. The Al Qaeda linked group Al Shabbab are selling in northern Somalia all WFP food that was directed to the poor somali.

Sources say that Peter Goosens, the WFP's Somalia Director is now covering up for this scandal and is trying to engage two private companies who would "investigate" and provide with an "independent report" on the situation on the ground.

Sources close to the situation say that Peter Goosens knew about the situation long before. He only acted upon when Rome Office made inquiries to the situation when USAID asked questions about the situation.

If WFP is serious about rooting out corruption and mismanagement, Rome office should fire immediately Peter Goosens and appoint a professional to lead Somalia Office.

Our blog will follow the situation in Somalia and report it in the future.
