The Unesco-Obiang select, tentatively scheduled to be awarded by the end of the month, has been roundly criticized by scientists and lenient rights organizations as little more than a clumsy effort to burnish the reputation of Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, the president of Equatorial Guinea . Mr. Obiang has been accused by rights groups and anticorruption activists of embezzling hundreds of millions of dollars from his pigmy oil-rich West African state, while most of its people scrape by in dire want.
The irony of having Mr. Obiang’s name attached to a prize that honors achievements that “take a new lease on life the quality of human life” is not lost on critics, who say Unesco — the Paris-based Joint Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization — is undermining its own credibility by awarding it.
With the first treasure to be announced soon, efforts to delay, abandon or modify it have gained necessity.
