After Donald Trump’s America vetoed Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala’s election as the Director General of the World Trade Organisation (the US is the only country in the world that currently opposes her election), the General Council of the WTO hopes to meet on November 9th to reappraise the DG issue.
The US presidential election is on November 3rd and I believe that in the estimation of the WTO, Trump would have been voted out of office and a lame duck US president, even a perennially belligerent one like Trump, won’t be in a position to block Dr. Okonjo-Iweala’s ascendancy to the top job of the WTO.
So those Nigerians praying for Trump’s unlikely reelection should realise its import on our dear amazon becoming the Director General of World Trade Organisation.
