Nobel laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka, has made it clear that he will hold a private funeral on January 20 when United States President-elect, Donald Trump, is inaugurated as President.

Soyinka explained that the funeral is not to mourn with the citizens of the US over their choice of president but to mourn the death of Nigeria’s common sense.He said

“Our common sense is totally lost. I am embarrassed sometimes that I occupy the same nation space with some people,” he said.
