Soyinka compared Trump to a past Nigerian leader, emphasizing the latter’s manipulative tactics.
“Trump studied and understood the American psyche, knowing exactly what to say to gain support and make people believe his countless lies,” Soyinka remarked.
He added, “We’ve had a similar figure in Nigeria, but he’s merely an imitator compared to Trump. The sheer scale of Trump’s deceit is unmatched.”
Soyinka stressed the global danger posed by Trump, stating, “Donald Trump is not just a menace to America; he is a danger to the entire world.”

Trump, who served one term as president, is now campaigning for a second term.
Recently, during a campaign event in Butler, Pennsylvania, he survived an assassination attempt.
The attacker was killed, and Trump sustained a minor injury to his upper right ear. His campaign reported that he was otherwise unharmed.
