Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka recently voiced his strong opinions about Donald Trump, describing him as a “consummate liar” and a global threat. In an interview with TheNEWS to mark his 90th birthday, Soyinka didn’t hold back in his criticism of the former U.S. president, who is now running for a second term.
Soyinka highlighted Trump’s skill in understanding and exploiting the American psyche, enabling him to get people to believe whatever he says. “I don’t think the world has ever known such a consummate liar like Donald Trump,” Soyinka remarked.
Despite serving only one term, Trump is actively campaigning for a second chance at the presidency. His campaign trail has not been without drama, as he survived an assassination attempt during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, although the shooter was killed.
Soyinka’s comments add to the growing global discourse on Trump’s controversial political style and the potential impact of his return to power. As the 2024 elections approach, these perspectives will likely influence both American voters and international observers.
