Very few people actually thought a Trump win was possible, and even fewer people were as bold as to make that belief vocal.
And, I suppose, it is in that absence of opposing opinion that some people – we won’t mention who, but you’ll find out – like world renowned poet, Wole Soyinka, got the courage to say he’d tear up his green card if Donald Trump won the presidency.
And now that that’s happened, the world – through twitter – wants him to keep his word.
Dear @channelstv kindly send a camera crew to Wole Soyinka’s house.
We would like to watch the passport tearing ceremony ON AIR.
