There is no excuse or place for such language and I apologize wholeheartedly to anyone who was hurt.
decided to go by myself
Zainab Abbas also said that neither was she fired nor was she asked to leave. He wrote- I was neither asked to leave nor was I deported. However, I was feeling intimidated and scared by the reaction I was seeing online. Even though there was no threat to my safety, my family and friends on both sides of the border were worried. I needed some space and time to think about what happened.
