I’ll hold private funeral on Trump’s inauguration day – Soyinka

December 5,2016

By Rita Chioma
Days after reports went viral that he has ‘torn’ his American green card, Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has added that he is ready to hold a private funeral the day President elect of USA, Donald Trump would be inaugurated.
Soyinka explained that the funeral is not to mourn with the citizens of the US over their choice of president but to mourn the death of Nigeria’s common sense.
“Our common sense is totally lost. I am embarrassed sometimes that I occupy the same nation space with some people,” he said.
He also said Nigerians did not have the right to query his personal decision to tear his US green card.
