COME March 1, 2021, Nigeria’s Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala will assume office as Director-General of the World Trade Organisation, WTO, to pilot world trade till August 31, 2025. She will not only be the seventh Director-General of the organization, she will also be the first woman and African to be saddled with such a prestigious but challenging assignment at this pandemic juncture of history.
As staunch supporters of her candidacy based on our conviction that she is tailor-made for this job, we congratulate and wish her unqualified success. She fought the political battle involved like the proverbial Trojan, capitalising on her humongous goodwill across the world as a former Managing Director of the World Bank.

At last, the United State government yesterday gave its formal approval to the emergence of Nigeria’s former Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as the next Director General of the World Trade Organization, removing the final obstacle to her bid to be the first woman and the first African to run the Geneva-based trade body.
In a swift response last night, Okonjo-Iweala expressed gratitude to President Muhammadu Buhari and Nigerians for their unflinching support for her run to become the director-general of the WTO.
She also expressed her gratitude to the US, and congratulated Yoo Mhung-Hee for “a hard fought campaign”. She tweeted: “Thank You President Buhari and all Nigerians for your unflinching support. Thank you friends. Love to my family. Glory to God.”
