    American rapper Nicki Minaj surprised and amused fans by responding to criticism in Pidgin English, embracing her Nigerian side on social media.

    Her use of Pidgin English sparked excitement among her Nigerian fans, who praised her for embracing the country’s culture and language.

Her playful response not only showcased her connection with Nigerian culture but also deepened her bond with her Nigerian fans.

    Recall, The rapper took to the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter) to address what appeared to be false claims made about her. In a passionate response, Nicki expressed her frustration, highlighting how some people seem to make money only by mentioning her name.

    In her tweet, she wrote: “I must be the only person you can make money off mentioning. Go 1 day. Abeg. GO ONE FUCKING DAY WITHOUT FKNG LYING ABEG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

    When a Nigerian fan, @tyxhndrxx, playfully asked who had been teaching her Pidgin English, Nicki quickly responded, noting that she sees the Pidgin English Nigerians frequently use on her timeline.

    She replied, “Wetin be the confusion? I Dey have eyes o? I can read all the pidgin weh una pikin de put on my timeline every day. SUCKS TEETH LOUDLY”
