The renowned artist and pastor, born in Akwa Ibom, shared the exciting news with his followers on Instagram, announcing the event and encouraging them to join him in raising a spiritual sound for America.
The Inaugural Prayer Breakfast is a faith-based gathering held every four years before a new administration’s swearing-in, providing a moment of prayer and worship to support the U.S. government.
This year’s event will be held at the luxurious Waldorf Astoria Presidential Ballroom, featuring distinguished speakers like Dr. Alveda King and Pastor Mario Bramnick.

His influence has extended beyond music, earning him the recognition of Albany, New York, where the Mayor proclaimed October 6 as “Pastor Nathaniel Bassey Day” in 2024.
