I don't take afonjas serious.

Green Card : Soyinka denies statement, says I never said I’ll tear my American green card should Trump win

Green Card : Soyinka denies statement, says I never said I’ll tear my American green card should Trump win

Wole Soyinka
Published by Family Writers

Nigeria’s Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has denied reports that made the rounds on major newspapers and other social media in Nigeria that he will tear his United States of America Green Card if the Republican candidate, Donald Trump is declared winner.

In a historic presidential election, Trump was declared winner and US President-elect.

In a statement emailed to Daily Globe Watch in the French capital of Paris, Prof. Soyinka emphatically denied the statement.

“My attention has been drawn to a wide and highly publicized and reported matter that, I said, should Americans elect Donald Trump as in the just concluded election, I will tear my America Green card. This is to inform all that, I never said so or matter of such resemblance.’

“‘In fact, it’s an imagination of men who sees my continuous relevance as a threat to their ignoble and rebellious behavioral ineptitude. It is a salvage custom, barbaric, outdated, rejected, infamous and ignominious.

”Let me further note that the President-Elect was one of my colleague at the University of Michigan and other organizations where we both delivered papers. He is my friend and was very instrumental in the granting of my residential permit during the reign of General Sani Abacha, the greatest dictator of our time,” he said.

Prior to the election, Soyinka had been quoted as saying that if Trump is elected president of the United States, he will leave the country.

“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,” said Soyinka, who is scholar-in-residence at New York University’s Institute of African American Affairs this autumn.

“The moment they announce his victory, I will cut my green card myself and start packing up.”

It remains unclear where the reported statement emanated from.

Wole Soyinka vowed that if Trump wins the US elections, he would tear his green card.

The election has been concluded. Trump won. Mrs Clinton conceded. Wailers are wailing.


Wole Soyinka, let's see what he does to his green card.

The guy na Yoruba man, not in the clout of Fayose n FFK...very good in chasing with the hounds and running with the game;trust him to change and eat his words.

Most of people here are just too naive and lack understanding of simple term. Prof did not say he would tear his Green Card. He said he would cut his green card. Let me quote him verbatim:

“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,”

Now let me explain this. Cutting of green card is not synonymous to tearing it. What it means is that, you will discontinue it's usage.

Soyinka is a scholar-in-residence at New York University’s Institute of African American Affairs this autumn. So when he said he would cut his green card, it means he would cease being a residence. And that does not even mean he will not visit the US again.

Fabulocity:
Iffa hear grin

People : Sir, now that Hillary Clinton has lost the US presidential elections, are you going to tear your green card as you vowed?

Soyinka: When did I say I'll tear my green card? Are you people deaf? Since when can you tear something that's plastic? I said I'll fear it meaning, I'll be very protective of it because it's my only chance of not facing deportation
embarassed

Hmmmmm

Leave this man alone at least he has promised January 20th 2017. Please allow the sleeping dog to lie so whether he tears his green card or not he has reached the zenith of his career in life. He is a global achiever who can be reckoned with anywhere in the world.
