On April 2, 2025, Dr. Louise M. Kpoto, the Minister of Health from the Republic of Liberia, will head an esteemed committee responsible for evaluating applicants vying for the prominent position of WHO Regional Director for Africa.

Dr. Kpoto, serving as the distinguished First Vice President of the 74th session of the WHO Regional Committee for Africa, offers exceptional knowledge, honesty, and forward-thinking insight crucial for this important selection process.

This critical selection takes place amid escalating worldwide health issues, such as dwindling charitable contributions and the pressing requirement for enduring healthcare investments throughout the region.

The recently selected Regional Director will play a crucial role in developing Africa’s public health approaches, advancing comprehensive healthcare access, and enhancing resistance to new health challenges.

Four notable nominees, each supported by their corresponding Member States, are competing for the position.

The group comprises Dr. N’da Konan Michel Yao from Côte d’Ivoire, Dr. Dramé Mohammed Lamine from Guinea, Prof. Mijiyawa Moustapha from Togo, and Prof. Janabi Mohamed Yakub from Tanzania.

Given their deep roots in public health leadership, policy creation, and bolstering healthcare systems, these contenders form an exceptionally tough competition.

Dr. Kpoto’s guidance through this stringent evaluation highlights both her extensive background in healthcare management and Liberia’s strong dedication to international health cooperation.

Under her guidance, the selection process will adhere to the WHO’s transparent framework, allowing candidates to present their strategic health agendas to Member States.

This guarantees a comprehensive assessment of every applicant’s strategy, leadership skills, and capacity to implement revolutionary policies for enhancing Africa’s healthcare industry.

As Africa faces ongoing health issues like frequent disease outbreaks, insufficient healthcare facilities, and uneven allocation of medical resources, the importance of the Regional Director’s position grows significantly.

The chosen leader will need to promote cooperation among regions, secure financing for essential health programs, and take charge of advancing sustainability objectives within the healthcare sector.

Minister Kpoto’s role as the head of this significant committee reinforces her standing as a powerful champion for public health.

Since assuming office as the First Vice President of the WHO Regional Committee for Africa on August 26, 2024, she has showcased her adeptness at addressing intricate health challenges and propelling significant policy debates forward.

Under her guidance in managing this selection process, we can confidently expect that the most suitable individual will arise to steer Africa’s health priorities with expertise, ingenuity, and a steadfast dedication to enhancing healthcare results throughout the region.
