I Never Said I'll Tear My American Green Card Should Trump Wins'- Soyinka Refutes Statement

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 American Green Card should the Republican candidate and US President-elect is declared winner in the just concluded US presidential election.
In a statement from Paris, Prof. Wole Soyinka emphatically denied the statement.
Below is the statement received a while ago:

"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 It is a salvage custom, barbaric, outdated, rejected, infamous and ignominious.''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"
