Your eminent role as the Chair of the Board of Gavi, (Global Alliance for Vaccines and lmmunisation), and your various celebrated global recognitions including membership of the Board of Twitter has earned you a dignified image in the lnternational Community.
You are indeed a gift to Nigeria, Africa and the world. As the first African and first female Director General of the World Trade Organisation, the largest international economic organization in the world, you have trailed the blaze in distinguished global leadership.
The Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) joins the rest of the world to congratulate you on this well deserved honour.
