#DG-WTO: Okonjo-Iweala Is Sole Candidate As Myung-Hee Announces Withdrawal (27033 Views)
(1) Go Down)

South Korea's candidate for the Director-General of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), Yoo Myung-Hee has announced she will withdraw from the race, clearing the path for Nigeria's Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala who the General Council announced late last year as the consensus candidate. The World Trade Organization’s General Council Chair David Walker announced in October last year that Nigeria’s Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala had garnered the most among WTO to become the next global trade chief, but was vetoed by the United States. Korea's Trade Minister Yoo Myung-hee announced on February 5 (local time) that she would withdraw her candidacy for the next World Trade Organization (WTO) Director-General. Korea will continue to work with responsibility for the restoration of the multilateral trading system. SOURCE NOI, as she is fondly called, will be the first female and first African to head the WTO if affirmed by its 164 . PS: @YooMyunghee1's withdrawal does not mean @NOIweala immediately becomes the @wto's next Director-General. That appointment is taken in a formal decision by the WTO's 164 . Since the U.S. is the only @wto member blocking @NOIweala's candidacy the key question now is whether the Biden istration will reverse the Trump istration's veto and @NOIweala Absent opposition from any WTO , the chairman of the WTO general council, David Walker, can announce the resumption of the @wto's suspended October general council meeting to consider the appointment of a new Director-General. 43 Likes 5 Shares |

Hmm... This is a good news to her backers and Ngozi. However, people shouldn't jubilate in naija These are positions that will only benefit '' EU and US ''. She deserves it because her pedigree is good!!!.

It's called NO CONTROVERSY. Okonjo is the DG. Shame on Donald Trump who doesn't want to see the best in our candidate.
