Former finance minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala is edging closer in becoming World Trade Organisation Director-General, contrary to wide speculations saying she had won the election against her South Korea counterpart.

Be that as it may, the European Commission and the African Union have voiced their help for her.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, who additionally at present seats the African Union, said in an explanation that the AU upheld the Nigerian competitor, adding, “the AU believes that, in a similar soul, nothing will hold up traffic of the WTO settling on the correct choice for the association.”

Though Donald Trump has been a strong opposition to the appointment of Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, that is if he wins the presidential election, Okonjo-Iweala would likely come out victorious as to many international organization are standing behind her.
