“Fake news can start World War 3”- Wole Soyinka

In a BBC symposium, a renowned professor, Wole Soyinka explains the effects of fake news. According to him, fake news can start World War 3 and he also said that Nigerians will be the cause.

“I’ve said this before that fake news may cause World War 3 and the fake news will be started by a Nigerian.”

“During the last Presidential election I was quoted as saying that it serves President Jonathan right for marrying an illiterate. Sometimes some people quote me as saying if you vote for a particular candidate, your mother is a goat or your father is a gorilla”.
