Biden Asked To Endorse Okonjo-iweala For WTO Top Job by TheRareGem1(f): 11:51am On Feb 05, 2021
US president, Joe Biden, has been asked to endorse former Nigeria Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, for the World Trade Organization (WTO) top job, Bloomberg reports.

Dozens of former US government officials have urged Biden to endorse Okonjo-Iweala, after the Trump administration blocked her selection.

The opposition halted the selection process because WTO decisions are made on the basis of a consensus of its members.

South Korean Trade Minister, Yoo Myung-hee, on Friday also withdrew her bid to lead the WTO, leaving Okonjo-Iweala as the only remaining candidate for the job

You are a winner already Madam Okonjo,
Our Darling Daddy got your back from day one!
And Anybody that all of us @ [/color] support is always a winner and always ends up Victorious.
Just becareful that some certain losers led by a cownu no put mouth for ur matter,
If so, na sorry go be dis case o.

It has happened over and over and over again and again.
You can ask Dino, Saraki, Your guy Jonathan, Jimi Agbaje, Atiku and even most recently, Donald Trump.
As long as you stay clear of such multiple losers, you are a winner.
Truth is not bitter, just that some losers are bitter to the truth, we go continue to dey talk am.... you heard?!
Pres Joe Biden, kindly do the needful biko.

From the horse's mouth : Thanks, WTO members for your continued support of my candidacy. “I could not have made it without the prayers and support of all Nigerians and friends around the world. [color=#990000]Thank you, President Buhari and all my friends. Aluta continua!”

Yes! Yes!

Shame on devilish trump who claimed to be saint and all his almanjiris in USA and Nigeria saw him as a messiah, even holding vigils for the idiot. How can someone who hates blacks openly be supported by any sane blackman or woman? How can someone with unguarded comments, even calling our place a shiit hole be called a true Christian? It amazes me how a particular tribe whose name I'd not mention here always hates to see their fellow soar. They wanted trump to be reelected at all cost, the same who was against the candidacy of their sister.
