In an interview with Newsweek on Wednesday in Newyork, Prof. Wole Soyinka, who vowed to cut his green card and leave the United States if Trump wins the US Presidential election, has said he is biding his time until Trump is inaugurated in January before deciding on his next steps.
“Why don’t we wait until Trump actually takes office? I’m just going about my normal commitments, but definitely not getting into any more commitments. Let’s put it that way for now,” Soyinka said.
On whether Trumps victory could affect US aid to Nigeria on fight against terrorism, Soyinka said;
“One should expect that level of collaboration to diminish. Trump’s mentality is one of, ‘What are we doing there? What business do we have over there?’” Soyinka told Newsweek.
“I foresee Trump dismissing that kind of expectation offhand and closing in, shrinking, becoming smaller in terms of[the U.S.’s presence in other parts of the world,” he added.
