<p>Nicki Minaj’s music introduced a new generation of female rappers. But now she’s lending her voice to a more important cause — stopping the killing of Christians in Nigeria.</p>
<p>Minaj is set to speak at the United Nations this week alongside United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Mike Waltz. They will discuss what President Donald Trump and his administration are doing to stop the persecution of Christians in Nigeria. According to the International Society of Civil Liberties and Rule of Law, 7,000 Christians have been killed in 2025 alone.</p>
<p>“[Minaj] is not only arguably the greatest female recording artist, but also a principled individual who refuses to remain silent in the face of injustice,” Waltz wrote on X on Sunday. “I’m grateful she’s leveraging her massive platform to spotlight the atrocities against Christians in Nigeria, and I look forward to standing with her as we discuss the steps the President and his administration are taking to end the persecution of our Christian brothers and sisters.”</p>

<p>Minaj was flattered. She responded to the ambassador’s remarks, writing, “Ambassador, I am so grateful to be entrusted with an opportunity of this magnitude. I do not take it for granted… I will never stand down in the face of injustice. We’ve been given our influence by God. There must be a bigger purpose.”</p>

<p>The collaboration came together over social media earlier this month when Waltz invited Minaj to talk with him at the U.S. Embassy to the United Nations after the Grammy-nominated rapper publicly thanked Trump for bringing attention to the slaughtering of Christians. Trump advisor Alex Bruesewitz coordinated the Waltz-Minaj meeting, <a href="https://x.com/EricCortellessa/status/1990097775858417714?s=20">set</a> to take place Tuesday, according to TIME Senior Political Correspondent Eric Cortellessa, who first broke the news of the meetup.</p>
<p>On Halloween, Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/users/realDonaldTrump/statuses/115470116607441456">said</a> the State Department would add Nigeria to its list of “Countries of Particular Concern.”</p>
<p>“Christianity is facing an existential threat in Nigeria. Thousands of Christians are being killed,” Trump said. “Radical Islamists are responsible for this mass slaughter. I am hereby making Nigeria a ‘COUNTRY OF PARTICULAR CONCERN’ — But that is the least of it. When Christians, or any such group, is slaughtered like is happening in Nigeria (3,100 versus 4,476 Worldwide), something must be done!”</p>

<p>Minaj <a href="https://x.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/1984566555460485280?s=20">thanked</a> the Trump administration “for taking this seriously,” adding, “God bless every persecuted Christian. Let’s remember to lift them up in prayer.”</p>
<p>Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/nigerias-tuggar-trump-state-backed-religious-persecution-impossible-under-2025-11-04/">argued</a> that the government was not supporting the persecution of Christians “in any way.”</p>
<p>“This is what shows that it’s impossible for there to be a religious persecution that can be supported in any way, shape or form by the government of Nigeria at any level, be it federal, be it regional, be it local, it&#8217;s impossible,” Tuggar said November 4 during a press briefing in Berlin.</p>
<p>The Daily Wire has reached out to Bruesewitz for more details.</p>
