Some Nigerians on social media have called on Nobel Laureate, Wole
Soyinka, to tear his green card, following the vow he made, should
Donald Trump become the president of the United States.
Soyinka made the vow last week while giving a speech to students of Oxford University, England.
According to the literary doyen, “If in the unlikely event he does
win, the first thing he’ll do is to say [that] all green-card holders
must reapply to come back into the US. Well, I’m not waiting for that.”
“The moment they announce his victory, I will cut my green card
myself and start packing up,” said Soyinka, who is scholar-in-residence
at New York University’s Institute of African American Affairs..
Trump won the US presidential election early this morning in an
incredible victory that has shocked pundits and observers all around the
world.
