U.N. Secretary General

"U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon is being persistently afflicted with critical views on the 'quiet diplomacy' of Mr. Ban."

shouldn't that highlighted Mr. Ban be 'his'? why is this article repeating his name twice?

Yes, it's not right if it's supposed to refer to the same person. I would say "on his 'quiet diplomacy'".
