At the expiration of the deadline set to reach a consensus, where a situation arises that one or more member-countries opted to block the process by holding a dissenting opinion from all other members, the procedure requires a recourse to voting as a last resort to resolve the stalemate.
For the mode of voting, the source who requested that his identity should not be revealed as he was not permitted to speak officially on the issue, said members would have to decide on whether to resort to the Marrakesh Agreement of January 1995. During the meeting, the U.S. faulted the outcome of the consultations, despite that all other member-countries present were unanimous in their insistence the rules were transparent and strictly adhered to.
Apart from the fact that the American decision to block the consensus process was not an equivalent to the veto power exercised by member-countries of the United Nation Security Council, the source said the Nigerian presidency, the officials of the foreign affairs ministry and the campaign team in Geneva are working assiduously to get everyone on their side.
“The overwhelming support Mrs Okonjo-Iweala enjoyed among the 164 member-states of the WTO as shown by the support she received from virtually all the key economic power blocs in the world in the run up to the final round of consultations was a reflection of the wide engagements by Nigeria,” the source said.
