Nicki Minaj to Address UN on Violence Facing Christians in Nigeria

Global star, Nicki Minaj is set to deliver an address at a United Nations event in New York on November 18, 2025, focusing on attacks affecting Christian communities in Nigeria. The engagement aligns with her recent expressions of support for U.S. efforts to spotlight religious violence in the region.

Minaj announced her participation after endorsing a social media post by former President Donald Trump, saying she felt honoured to use her platform for global advocacy. She is expected to appear alongside U.S. Ambassador to the UN Michael Waltz, who commended her commitment to highlighting humanitarian concerns.

Her participation has stirred mixed reactions, with supporters praising her advocacy and critics raising concerns about the political implication of her stance.
Nigerian officials maintain that ongoing violence stems largely from criminal operations and communal disputes rather than targeted attacks on a single faith group.
