Kobina is the second member of Annan’s family to be drawn into the scandal, which has led to the resignation of several senior UN officials.
The secretary-general has so far escaped censure, but the final verdict on his conduct will not be delivered by investigators until the autumn.
Kojo Annan, the secretary-general’s son who was involved with several companies seeking to profit from the programme, has been criticised and remains under investigation.
Inquiries into Kobina are at an early stage and he has not been interviewed.
However, investigators are understood to suspect that Michael Wilson, an African businessman, and Kobina had a business relationship at the time of the scandal.
A source close to the investigation said: “We believe Kobina Annan may be involved with Michael Wilson and Kojo Annan. We know there is a connection between Kobina and Wilson.”
And sooner or later they'll get around to George Galloway.
