President Donald Trump is scheduled to be honored at the inaugural US–Nigeria Faith Heroes Gala, an event organized by Save Nigeria Group USA in partnership with the US–Nigeria Civil Society Coalition.
The gala, which will be held in Washington, D.C., marks the culmination of a series of advocacy campaigns, demonstrations, and diplomatic engagements aimed at drawing international attention to Nigeria’s security challenges and human rights concerns.
According to organizers, the US–Nigeria Faith Heroes Gala was established to recognize American policymakers and public officials who have demonstrated commitment to promoting religious freedom, humanitarian advocacy, and international awareness of violence affecting communities in Nigeria.
President Trump is expected to be honored alongside U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Republican members of Congress Chris Smith and Riley Moore for their roles in advancing discussions on religious liberty and security issues impacting vulnerable populations.
The event follows the Save Nigeria Rally, which brought together members of the Nigerian diaspora, faith leaders, and civil society advocates near the White House. Participants used the rally to spotlight concerns over religious persecution, terrorism, insecurity, and broader humanitarian challenges facing Nigeria.
Organizers say the gala serves as both a recognition platform and a call for continued international engagement in addressing the country’s security and human rights situation.
Additional information about the event, including attendance and registration details, is available through the Save Nigeria Group’s official events platform.
