Renowned Nigerian pastor and gospel minister, Nathaniel Bassey, has received a prestigious invitation to minister at the Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast for U.S. President-elect Donald Trump.

The event, set for January 20, 2025, in Washington, D.C., will precede the swearing-in ceremony of Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance.

The gathering, which is a non-governmental and non-political affair, will be hosted by Reverend Merrie Turner.
