[Daily Caller] The winner of the 1986 Nobel Prize for literature says he has fulfilled a pre-election promise to cut up his green card and leave the United States if Donald Trump was elected president."I have already done it, I have disengaged [from the United States]. I have done what I said I would do," Wole Soyinka, an 82-year-old Nigerian poet and playwright, told Agence France-Presse at an education conference in South Africa on Thursday.
"I had a horror of what is to come with Trump... I threw away the [green] card, and I have relocated, and I’m back to where I have always been," he added.
Soyinka, who recently completed a stint as a scholar in residence at New York University, made his pledge to cut up his green card -- which provides permanent legal residence status -- just days before the Nov. 8 election.
