                    [Title] => Bush to name Zoellick to head World Bank
                    [Summary] => 

WASHINGTON (AFP) - US President George W. Bush was on Wednesday set to name former diplomat and trade chief Robert Zoellick to head the World Bank after a favoritism scandal that forced Paul Wolfowitz to resign.

By nominating Zoellick, a troubleshooter on tricky issues ranging from global trade to strife in Darfur, Bush is seeking to finally put behind the furore that rocked the World Bank for weeks.
