Well nobody knows my sorry ass. All what people know about me is a moniker that doesn't have a face attached to it. As far as prof is concerned, I'm just an internet millipede.

Your Papa name please?

Your papa namesake.
Knock yourself out with it.

Jimmy Carter gave you a green card free of charge, while others were slaving away for years to get theirs. And the best way to pay him back was to tear up the green card because an election did not go your way

Don't mind him. I always respected this man but, on his present rant because of Trump who I prefer, I think he's gone too far. Maybe old age is catching up with him or he's expiring in shame.

hollowpot15684:


it was a media interview..
must you type something?

You too join am go sleep. The man just dey show himself lately.

Donald don win nothing anyone does or says can change that, let's move on

jce:
millipedes of internet got me laughing

They are really millipedes. They have no absolute contribution to their community, country or the world. All what they do is rant on the internet and insults people that have achieved what they can never achieve in their lifetime. They are all suffering and dying from hardship, but their cerebral content won't phantom how to make their situation better. These same shameless youths insulting one of the most respected black person on earth will line up to collect N500 and sell their future to a useless politician. You begin to wonder where is this people's dignity.
The day I lose all respect for these inferiority complex suffering Nigerians was when they started wishing their families and friends living in America to be deported because Trump was elected president. Like seriously? how hateful can you be to wish people close to you bad?

Wole Soyinka should move on from this Donald Trump and Green Card issue..... Just move on Kongi!

huntila:


He has his flaws definitely. But that statement was first made at a gathering with no press, no audio, no video to a group of people. My thought is for example, You address set of people or colleagues at work and before you know it gets to the press and boom, Social media.
Trump himself tried suing for comments he made and did not know he was recorded .

But I still stand that his property, his card and his passport. He decides not to tear, Good. Reason why there is so much noise is because he is a public figure. And we all are humans and we make errors.

All the American Stars who threatened to leave America if Trump won have not left . Lady Gaga ,Roberto De Niro and co

Someone mentioned that it was a seminar and there were members of the Press present. Who then to believe? But I do get your point. as for Hollywood, celebs like Lisa Dunham and De Niro addressed the matter publicly afterwards on why they changed their minds - and yes, a lot of people still criticised them. Believe me, the American public are some of the most critical and outspoken bunch of humans on earth. But to start another round of media tirade - and insults is most unbecoming for a man of his stature and calibre brother

Shut that trap you call mouth you Afonja liars,fulfil wat,did he tear his green card like he boasted or he just throw it one side of his room after which he will still pick it.There is different between tearing and throwing Afonja zombie if you don't know

And Wat makes u think I am an Afonja? This ur deposition is puerile as anybody who doesn't support ur argument is termed so and which might not necessarily be true.

Don't be ashamed of your Papa my boy

If by the slimmest error am your boy,
Then you're my papa.
Are you that dumb to know your name?
If so, common sense says you are shame personified.
Boyyyyy!

slurryeye2:


He has kept to his words by leaving America immediately Trump got elected. He owes you no explanation whatsoever. Can you drop your Papa name please so that we can compare his wisdom to Soyinka?

I know your kind. Always oblivious of the subject matter and the diversionary objects. Your Soyinka is a coward. He should tear his green card publicly like Obasanjo tore his PDP card. It appears the green card is worth more than Soyinka himself and his worthless honour. I respect the fact that he is an accomplished scholar and academic though.
I drown you in these words; you will not have a Papa or be a Papa.

Hahaha. I get your point but, Sis let me explain my own little understanding on this subject. We are giving the matter more attention than the owner of the matter. If he had said such in the seminar, he took it in confidence that those were the right audience that would accept the message,Who knows, they might have been Democrats. Just like politicians to political rally.But it got to be news. It was not in Nigeria he made that comment. It was in the U.S I guess.

Do you know if we had ignored, there won't be so much noise about it. Because we reacted to the news.Actions started flying in. That is why I am still saying that we are crying more than the bereaved . That man has seen it all and achieved it all. He is just enjoying his life and has nothing to lose. Try to see and reason in context of what I am saying.

slurryeye2:

I have said it before, and I will keep saying it again, the prof has shown to be the man of his words by leaving America immediately Trump got elected. He owns no one any further explanation. A man at the age of 82 have nothing to proof to these toddlers

True.He's a metonymy in this case.
I know you understand.

DONALD TRUMP'S FULL SPEECH ON WHY HE HATES AFRICANS & ARABS.

We are not obliged,even for a second, to try to prove to anybody and especially to blacks and Arabs that we are superior people - we have demonstrated that to the black and Arabs in 1001 ways.
The America we know today was not created by wishful thinking.We created it at the expenses of intelligence, sweat and blood.....we do not pretend like other whites that we like the blacks - We must admit,without any fear,that we don't like them,and for so so may many valid reasons.

The fact that blacks and Arabs look like human beings does not necessarily make them sensible human beings. Hedgehogs are not porcupines and lizards are not crocodiles because they look alike. if God had wanted us to be equal to blacks and Arabs, he would have created us all of a uniform colour and intellect. But he created us differently.Whites, blacks, yellow, the rulers and the ruled. intellectually we are superior to the blacks and Arabs.That has been proven beyond the reasonable doubt over the years.

I believe that a white man is an honest, God fearing person who has demonstrated practically the right way of being a human.By now every one of us has seen it practically that blacks and Arabs cannot rule themselves. Give them guns and they will kill each other.They are good in nothing else but making noise, dancing, marrying many wives, alcoholism, witchcraft, indulging in sex, pretending in church, jealousy, fighting and complaining of nonsense.

Their only main concern (which according to me is stupidity of the highest magnitude) is same - sex marriages.They keep pointing fingers to us,we the west,that we have legalised it in our countries,and that we always outspokenly support gay people around the world.And because they always foolishly want to demostrate their ignorance,hatred and fear about the subject,some of them have even enacted harsh laws to codemn their own gay citizens.This shows that beyond illusions and doubt,what people do with their own bodies is Africans main concern.I hear they even strip their women publicly.

Let us all accept the fact that the black man is a symbol of poverty, mental inferiority, laziness and emotional incompetence.To make the matter worse,he can do everything possible to defend his stupidity.Give them money for development and they will fight and create hatred and enmity for themselves.Drill oil wells for them and they will not have peace all the days of their life.See,for instance,what's happening in Nigeria,Southern Sudan,Malawi,DRC just to mention a few.
this proves to anybody including a stupid fool that Africans do not know what they want. isn't that plausible?
Therefore that the white man is created to rule the black man, Africans will always have day dreams.And here is the creature (black man) that lacks foresight but only sees what is near him and still fails to know what to do. A black man is stupid to the extent that he cannot plan for his life beyond a year. Therefore how can they develop and live longer.

Corruption in west (And China) is a big abomination but in africa,it's so huge that it is slowly becoming an acceptable way of life.They sing and rejoice to their corrupt political leaders.They worship their scandal-ridden religious leaders like their gods.Lest you forget,these so called Africans are praising,dancing and praying for the people that have impoverished them,and who comes to hide their loot here.
Then which fool argues that the black man is not born a beggar, grows a beggar, looks a beggar, falls sick as a beggar and dies a beggar. this has been proven beyond reasoning. I wonder why even up to now most Africans still go to school by force and those who are at school are are just drug addicts who don't know what took them there.This is a pregnant stupidity in Africa that needs Jesus's immediate second coming. the body of Africans is a very fertile ground for all diseases in the world because they don't fear even HIV/AIDS. This leaves me with a question: are our eyes created the same with those Africans,,.? I hear there are still cultures in Africa that prohibit them from using latrines which is very annoying.
They cried for independence but have failed to rule themselves. For sure being African is a very untreatable disease that even prayers are not enough.
They have minerals but they cannot do anything with it.Therefore let us (whites) go to Africa and pick what we can pick and leave what is of no use.Poverty is a disease to the whites but to the blacks it is very normal.

The worst tragedy in Africa is that if you dare stand up and speak up for what's right,you may end up regretting.The few wise and open-minded Africans who have tried to educate these fools about civilization have met the worst.They have been pushed hard on the wall,they have been silenced and others have been killed.
Before I finish,let me tell Africans that before you jump and call me a racist,an anti-blacks or whatever term you may wish to use against me,first tackle runaway corruption,dreadful terrorism,tribalism,poverty,unemployment, diseases, illiteracy ,ignorance and inequality that have put your whole continent on the verge of collapse.Hate me or love me I don't care.I know this is the plain truth which will never see the light of the day to the cowards that are afraid to be told as it is.
Jesus please hurry and save Africans and Arabs. A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE.[truncated by WhatsApp]
