Former governor of Anambra state and presidential candidate of the Labour party in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi Congratulates Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala on Reappointment as WTO Director-General.
Obi wrote in a statement ” I am genuinely delighted to celebrate the reappointment of my dear elder sister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, as the Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO) for a second term, starting September 1, 2025.
This remarkable news, announced by the WTO General Council, is a testament to her exceptional character, outstanding resume, and record of accomplishments in public service. Dr. Okonjo-Iweala continues to distinguish herself as a capable and visionary leader, worthy of steering such a prestigious global organization.
Her invaluable contributions to Nigeria’s development and the global community make her one of our country’s finest human capital exports. She stands as a symbol of excellence, hard work, and resilience—a beacon of hope and inspiration for younger generations.
As she prepares to lead the WTO for another four years, I pray for her continued good health, strength, and wisdom to champion the cause of justice and fairness on the global stage.
Her remarkable journey and achievements offer profound lessons for Nigeria. They remind us, as leaders, of the responsibility to serve our people diligently. They also highlight the importance of prioritizing character, competence, capability, and integrity in our leadership selection process.
Congratulations once again, @NOIweala. Your success reflects the boundless potential of Nigerians and inspires us to believe in the possibilities of a better future”
A New Nigeria remains POssible.
