Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the current Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO), faces no opposition as she seeks a second term in office. This paves the way for her likely reappointment, signaling strong support for her leadership and reform agenda at the global trade body.
Okonjo-Iweala, who became the first African and first woman to lead the WTO in 2021, has championed initiatives to revitalize the organization, streamline trade negotiations, and support developing economies. Her tenure has focused on tackling global trade challenges, including supply chain disruptions and vaccine equity.
