know who she is but she has served as an jury finance and foreign affairs minister and while the minister of finance she actually did. get out of the sort of a recession that he was going through and also she. helped kept most of the major is external. about 60 percent in 2005 years also credited for having office or nigeria's 1st sort of rain credit rating and so she has that new groups each a role in the different positions that she has sat in she's also saved as a development economist at the world bank where she has also gly many different roles in many developing countries including asia and africa now certainly

a very impressive resume from what you tell me but can you tell me how do you think the w t o would look like under her leadership. i think she comes with the wealth of experience that she has gained over the years not just 70 and jury at all to serving at the different international been easy sheens like the world bank and the rockefeller foundation as well as the different boards that she has gone but i think more is really the fact that she has and recognition for improving financial stability in the different roles that she has served in and also for storing fiscal transparency and that any age if you look at what's going on right now globally i mean with the carbon 19 prices this is just put the global economy into a sort of recession and so is she probably going to have to pull up her strengths and show as much you can do in terms of integrating countries as well with

protectionism coming to the fore more from countries like the united states and china trade was she's now going to have to play the role of unifying and a lot of roof on as well that is going to be expected from her africa and also expecting that she's going to put a case for them. as a result of being african from the african continent but whether or not she'll be able to do that we cannot tell that hopefully if she gets the support that she needs to be able to do that briefly if they can can you tell me if there's anything else that her being the 1st director on director general from africa would mean for the continent. africa in my view should not put a lot of expectations on her because as a director general she does not influence global tree policy and so the fact that

she is going to be from africa might not exactly mean that africa is going to have free a trip with the rest of the while but what we can expect for sure is that she will put into context some of the issues like terry escalation when it comes to trading with the developed countries on the table for more illegals evasions to happen and possibly we could see that some of the policies that work against africa is trade revised thank you very much for your analysis our correspondent joy green there are there. car ownership is growing around the world and that's not expected to stop anytime soon but there's quantity and there's quality a report from the united nations says that rich countries are dumping millions of quote dangerous and dirty cars in developing nations here's more. millions of used cars many buses and vans from europe and america end up on african roads every year
