Trump declares that he Deserves a Nobel Peace Prize not Abiy Ahmed

President of the United States, Donald Trump has once again patted himself on the back and boasted that he it the one who deserved last year’s Nobel Peace Prize.

Trump believes that the Nobel Peace Prize given to Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed of Ethiopia should have been his since he is the one who actually saved Ethiopia from crisis following his deal with Abiy.

He said: “I’m going to tell you about the Nobel Peace Prize, I’ll tell you about that. I made a deal, I saved a country, and I just heard that the head of that country is now getting the Nobel Peace Prize for saving the country. I said: ‘What, did I have something do with it?’ Yeah, but you know, that’s the way it is. As long as we know, that’s all that matters… I saved a big war, I’ve saved a couple of them.”

A video clip of him talking to supporters at a campaign event in Toledo, Ohio, on Thursday evening was shared on Twitter:

Although he did not name the Nobel Peace Prize winner or the country. It is however, clear that Mr Trump was referring to Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed.

Mr Abiy, 43, is Africa’s youngest head of government.

He came into office in April 2018 after months of anti-government protests forced his predecessor to resign.

Mr Abiy has introduced massive liberalising reforms to Ethiopia, shaking up what was a tightly controlled nation.

He freed thousands of opposition activists from jail and allowed exiled dissidents to return home. He has also allowed the media to operate freely and appointed women to prominent positions.

And in October last year, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize – the only head of state to win the prize since Mr Trump was elected in 2016.
