Femi Kuti , son of Afrobeat Legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, has
reacted to the statement made by Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka about tearing his
green card over Donald trumps victory.
It should be recalled that Wole Soyinka has vowed to tear
his green card I the Republican candidate won the election, and later shifted
the date of performing his vow on the day the President-elect would be sworn
in.
Following reactions by social media commentators on when the
pen icon would tear the green card, Soyinka asked everyone to mind their
business as he would be the one to tear his card at his own time and not a time
fixed by critics.
When asked for his opinion concerning Soyinka’s ‘Green Card
tearing ceremony’ in an interview with TheNetNg, Femi Kuti said: “He should
quickly tear it.
“My question is why does he have a green card in the first
place?
“Africa is so beautiful, look at our landscape; there is so
much to see in Africa.”
The music legend added that he wondered why most Nigerians
took the American elections so personal, as he felt the outcome doesn’t really
affect him or any average Nigerian.
