Wole Soyinka |
While speaking in Lagos on Monday, Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka,
revealed that he will hold a private funeral on January 20 when United
States President-elect, Donald Trump, is inaugurated as President.
According to Punch newspaper, he 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 U.S green card.
