The Director-General of the World Trade Organization, WTO, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, caught global public attention when she danced with Igbo masquerades at the WTO Open Day in Geneva, Switzerland.

In a viral video, an Adamma masquerade, adorned in elaborate woven raffia and a beautifully carved maiden mask, strode into the centre of the square and moved with intricate footwork.

The masquerade stamped its feet to the escalating tempo of the drums, bringing the raw spirit of southeastern Nigeria straight into the heart of global governance.

The crowd erupted in cheers as Okonjo-Iweala immediately caught the rhythm.

She matched the masquerade’s energy, rolling her shoulders and executing graceful, rhythmic steps that perfectly mirrored the cadence of the Ogene.Watch video: https://x.com/i/status/2074139336757465094
