Nigerian Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka says his US visa revoked

Nigerian Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, known for his sharp wit and outspoken views, has been banned from entering the US. The US consulate requested his passport to cancel his visa, citing new but unspecified information. Soyinka, who has taught at US universities for over 30 years, suspects his criticisms of Trump's immigration policies and comparisons to Idi Amin contributed to the ban. The US has also tightened visa rules for Nigerian citizens, but Soyinka's ban appears to be more personal than policy-driven. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered.
