Nathaniel Bassey Reveals How He Was Invited To Trump’s Inaugural Prayer Breakfast

Acclaimed Gospel artist, Nathaniel Bassey, has opened up about the unexpected invitation he received to minister at the US Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast.

Speaking at Pastor Poju Oyemade‘s World Faith Believers Convention (WOFBEC), Bassey recounted receiving an unexpected call from Reverend Merrie Turner, who was in the midst of prayer when she felt a divine prompting to invite him for the event.

Reverend Turner shared that God instructed her to call on Bassey to “release His glory over the United States.”

Reverend Turner relayed God’s message to Bassey: “I was in prayer, and the Lord says to me to send for you to come release the glory of God over our Nation.”

This divine invitation has culminated in Bassey’s forthcoming ministry at the high-profile gathering in Washington, DC, where he will join fellow faith leaders and dignitaries to pray and offer worship for the President and the US government.

Christian Music Minister and Pastor, Nathaniel Bassey, has clarified that he was not invited to perform at President-elect, Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20th.

Reports circulated across online platforms and traditional media claiming Bassey would be among other international Christian singers performing at Trump’s inauguration.

The Akwa Ibom Cleric, however, clarified that he was not invited to perform at Trump’s inauguration. He explained that the Presidential Prayer Breakfast was a non-official and non-governmental event.

He stated that it has always been hosted once every four years, preceding the inauguration ceremonies of new presidents of the United States of America.

The ‘Onise Iyanu’ singer said while the Presidential Prayer Breakfast is held on behalf of incoming presidents of the US, it has no attachment to the incoming president.
