Soyinka, Visa Revocation and Parallels
According to the Bible, "death and life are in the power of the tongue."
Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka's visa revocation may have been prompted by his actions and statements. He previously made his Green Card "have an accident", which could be seen as a precursor to the revocation of his B1/B2 visa.
Soyinka speculated about the reasons for the revocation, suggesting that "new facts that came to light" may have contributed to the US response. He also believed that his criticisms of President Donald Trump, whom he compared to former Ugandan president Idi Amin, might have played a role.
He likened President Trump to former Ugandan president Idi Amin in Whiteface.
Despite the visa revocation, Soyinka remains confident in his assessment of Trump's style and policies. He even hinted at the possibility of creating a work with the American president as the protagonist.
