Okonjo Iweala Makes It To The Final 2 For WTO Leadership Position

The World Trade Organisation members have selected two final candidates to advance to the final round in the race to lead the Geneva-based trade body, a Bloomberg report said Wednesday.

Quoting sources familiar with the matter, the news organisation said the candidates are Nigeria’s Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and South Korea’s Yoo Myung-hee.

WTO General Council Chairman David Walker will formally announce the results to the institution’s delegates on Thursday morning in Geneva.
