Prof. Wole Soyinka, a Nobel laureate, has denied supporting Bola Tinubu, the APC’s presidential candidate.
Soyinka called a statement on social media falsely linking him to Tinubu’s endorsement.

According to a statement from his media office, Nigerians should not believe claims that Soyinka disparaged political parties and leaders in a message.
“Soyinka did NOT at any time or on any occasion issue such a statement.
“It is simply the work of peddlers of fake news and falsehood, who profit from misinformation to gain political advantages,” the statement reads.
