NEW DELHI: Nigeria<\/a>\u2019s Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala<\/a> was appointed the seventh Director-General<\/a> of the World Trade Organization on Monday, making her the first woman and the first African to head the multilateral trade body from March 1, 2021 to August 31, 2025.
\u201cThe decision was taken by consensus at a special meeting today of the organization's General Council,\u201d said an official.

Okonjo-Iweala is the former Finance Minister of Nigeria and World Bank economist.
<\/div><\/div>The US<\/a>, under the Donald Trump-administration, had blocked Okonjo-Iweala\u2019s appointment in October despite strong endorsement from almost all WTO<\/a> members including India.
However, the Joe Biden administration, extended the US\u2019 support to Okonjo-Iweala earlier this month following which South Korea\u2019s candidate-Yoo Myung-hee- withdrew from the race.
Okonjo-Iweala said a key priority for her would be to work with members to quickly address the economic and health consequences brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.
\u201cA strong WTO is vital if we are to recover fully and rapidly from the devastation wrought by the Covid-19 pandemic,\u201d she said, adding that the WTO faces many challenges.
She takes charge at a time when developed countries have challenged the development agenda of the WTO such as special and differential treatment provisions and opposed an India-South Africa joint proposal for a temporary waiver of TRIPS obligations to ensure uninterrupted flow of vaccines to the developing and least developed countries.
The process for selecting a new Director-General was triggered on May 15 when former Director-General Roberto Azev\u00eado announced to step down from his post one year before the expiry of his mandate. He subsequently left office on August 31, 2020.
