The Best Job for Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala to Interview
Most of our community members have made good points here: the director general position in the World Trade Organization may not be the right job for Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. They posited that the DG job is an individual accomplishment that has only marginal value for Nigeria. Except trading global oil subsidies, I am not sure we have antenna systems that capture global trade, to benefit from her ascension.
So, most are asking: can Dr. Okonjo-Iweala run for president in Nigeria, in 2023? Ideally, that one would benefit Nigeria more, if she succeeds!
Yet, I still think she will get the WTO job because her opponent will not be effective having come second in the process; U.S. made up its mind very late, unlike during Obama time when they made it clear very early whom they wanted to coronate.
