Amina J. Mohammed vs Basdeo Panday

As Special Adviser to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Post-2015 Development Planning, Mohammed played a central role in shaping the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. She coordinated the process that resulted in the adoption of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by UN member states in September 2015.

President Muhammadu Buhari appointed Amina J. Mohammed as Nigeria's Minister of Environment in November 2015. During her tenure, she focused on environmental remediation in the Niger Delta and climate change policy, serving until her move to the UN in 2017.

Amina J. Mohammed was appointed as Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations by Secretary-General Ant

Panday founded the United National Congress (UNC), a political party representing primarily Indo-Trinidadian interests. The party became a major force in Trinidadian politics, winning elections and shaping policy.

Basdeo Panday became the first Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago of Indian descent after leading the United National Congress to victory in the 1995 general election. His election marked a milestone in the country's ethnic politics.

Panday implemented economic reforms, including austerity measures and privatization, to address fiscal deficits. The policies stabilized the economy but were unpopular with labor unions and led to protests.

Panday's UNC lost the 2001 general election to the People's National Movement, resulting in a tied parliament and a political crisis. The deadlock led to a second election in 2002, which the PNM won, ending Panday's tenure.

Panday faced corruption allegations related to a bank scandal, leading to legal battles and his eventual conviction in 2006 for failing to declare a bank account. The case damaged his political reputation and led to his imprisonment.
