Sunday, October 11, 2026 -American rapper, Nicki Minaj has called on more celebrities and influencers to speak out over the persecution of Christians in Nigeria.
Minaj made the call while speaking at the X Takeover event
held at Tesla’s Giga Texas facility in Austin, Texas.
The rapper said her personal connection to Nigeria, through
her pastor and Nigerian fans known as Barbs, had drawn her attention to reports
of violence against Christians in the country.
She said, “For Nigeria personally, my pastor is from
Nigeria, so I have a link to Nigeria because of him and of course, I have a lot
of Nigerian barbs but what I started seeing was the brutality in which
Christians are being treated there just for being Christians and I thought why
isn’t anyone making a big deal out of this?
“You know and sometimes when things aren’t cool like to talk
about, people don’t just talk about it so right now.
“Actually I’m hoping that more celebrities or people,
influencers, I’m hoping that they come onboards the train to start speaking out
about what’s happening to Christians in Nigeria and I look forward to doing
more to help in that way in that cause.”
