: UNAIDS chief Michel Sidibe, whose tenure at the agency was marred by allegations of serious mismanagement, has been appointed health minister of his native Mali, the agency said Monday.
Sidibe had been scheduled to stand down in June, six-months before the official end of his tenure, following widespread concern over his conduct in office. The fallout from the Loures episode triggered wider concern about the culture at UNAIDS under the leadership of Sidibe, who took charge of the agency in 2009.
