Popular Nigerian singer and pastor Nathaniel Bassey denied claims of performing at President Trump’s Inauguration.
There have been recent reports that Nathaniel Bassey has been selected to perform at Trump’s inauguration, which is scheduled for January 20.
The Nigerian pastor and singer has come out to clarify such claims and state that he’s not performing at Trump’s inauguration but rather at the Presidential Prayer Breakfast event.
He further explained the Presidential Prayer Breakfast is a non-governmental event that has no link to the presidential inauguration, even though it is held every four years just before the inauguration.
Bassey said, “The Presidential Prayer Breakfast is a non-official and non-governmental event. It is a Faith Based platform where intercessory prayers and worship are offered to God on behalf of the office of the president and government of the nation.
“This event is held once in four years preceding the inauguration ceremony as a breakfast prayer meeting ahead of every new administration. And over the years has been attended by leaders and dignitaries from around the world.
“Please note, the Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfasts is not the Inauguration as reported by blogs and some online platforms.”
Nathaniel Bassey, who is known for his popular song “Onise Iyanu,” has stated that the Presidential Prayer Breakfast is held on behalf of incoming presidents of the US; it has no attachment to the incoming president.
