I will tear my green card if Donald Trump wins - Wole Soyinka

Wole Soyinka

Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka has threatened to cut his green card and depart the United States if Donald Trump wins the presidential race, as per a report by The Guardian.

The report said Soyinka, a researcher in-habitation at New York University's Institute of American Affairs, uncovered the arrangement in a discourse to Oxford students.

He was cited 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 likewise scrutinised Brexit, cautioning that there is an ascent of "ultranationalism" and approaching youngsters to oppose any form of persecution.

His remarks come under three weeks after 70 Nobel laureates sponsored Democratic Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton.

On Monday, around 370 financial analysts and eight Nobel laureates criticised Trump, blaming him for advancing fear inspired notions, in addition to other things.


In any case, Clinton has seen her lead in survey slip after the FBI declared that it was reviving her email test.
