Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka says he will cut his green card
and leave the United States if Donald Trump wins the
presidential election, according to a report by The Guardian .
The report said Soyinka, a scholar-in-residence at New York
University's Institute of American Affairs, disclosed the plan
in a speech to Oxford students.
He was quoted as saying, "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."
The Nobel laureate also criticised Brexit, warning that there is
a rise of "ultranationalism" and calling on young people to
resist oppression.
His comments come less than three weeks after 70 Nobel
laureates backed Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary
Clinton.
On Monday, about 370 economists and eight Nobel laureates
denounced Trump, accusing him of promoting conspiracy
theories, among other things.
Regardless, Clinton has seen her lead in poll slip after the FBI
announced that it was reopening her email probe.
This man speaks from both sides of his mouth and as a typical Yoruba man can't be trusted 'Nobel Laurent or not. After all Obama the Islamist terrorist was given 'Peace prize' only for him to enthrone fellow Islamists all over the world and helped murder Ghaddafi and destroy Libya by extension Africa.
ReplyDeleteHe even turned against Biafrans in favour of his Jihadist allies, imposing a terrorist like Buhari to continue the islamization and annihilation of Biafrans in particular land other non-jihadists in general!
Soyinka is comfortable with a lying, bloodthirsty witch like Hillary Clinton over Trump, the lesser of the two evil!
