My pastor is from Nigeria — Nicki Minaj

Rapper Nicki Minaj revealed that her Nigerian pastor played a significant role in shaping her stance on the issue of Christian persecution in her home country. During an event at Tesla’s Giga Texas facility in Austin, Texas, Minaj discussed her personal connection to Nigeria and urged more celebrities to speak out about the violence against Christians in the country.

She expressed concern over the lack of attention given to the issue, stating that her pastor's influence made her sympathize with the persecution, as Christians in Nigeria were being treated brutally for their faith. Minaj emphasized the need for more public figures to use their platforms to raise awareness, hoping that more celebrities and influencers would join the cause to address the plight of Christians in Nigeria.
