Unrelenting ! Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala Slays in Ankara First Day at Work

Despite the gender and racial discrimination that greeted her in a country where her office is based, unrelenting Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala resumed work in her signature Ankara outfit today.

The new World Trade Organisation’s Director General is set to hit the ground running irrespective of the apathy that greeted he appointment in certain White demographics.

Still celebrating of their own, Nigerians and indeed Africans react:

MC Jkcyno  @jkcyno·35m “Selling Africa to the world…… Centuries would remember this lady as a treasure……. Glad to have witnessed your existence ma….. As for the Ankara… She wants to show you mustn’t copy Oyibo verbatim to be noticed”

David@David29927028·36m “This is one of the many that makes you proud to be a Nigerian”

De british@dannyreggy·38m “This woman be carrying Africa on her head wherever she goes. A true icon!”

@Ezenaldo@Ezenaldo1·11m “She resume work today no convoy, no escort just one car….come to Nigerian here ordinary local government chairman will block roads”

I love how Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala showed up to work in Ankara on a Monday.

Our organisations here need to find a way to give African prints an expression. Not just on Fridays like some kind of favor.

Deep down, we probably haven't broken free from standards set for us by others
