The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has reappointed Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as its director-general for a second term.

In a post on X on Friday, WTO said the reappointment will take effect on September 1, 2025.

“WTO members today agreed to give incumbent Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala a second term as Director-General of the WTO,” the Geneva-based global trade body said in a statement.

The 70-year-old Nigerian economist was the only candidate for the high-profile post, but her approval still required the support — or at least the acquiescence — of all 166 WTO members, including the United States.
