United States–based Trinidadian rapper and singer, Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty, popularly known as Nicki Minaj, has threatened to file a lawsuit against a Nigerian social media user after an old video of her resurfaced online.
The controversy began when a Nigerian social media user, @drpenking, shared the clip on X on Saturday alongside a caption suggesting the rapper should retire.
In the post, he wrote, “Nicki Minaj should understand that she has gotten old and retire.”

The comment drew the attention of Nicki Minaj, who responded publicly and warned that the user had been added to a legal action over the use of the video.
Reacting to the post, the rapper wrote, “Do you have permission to use this video that I filmed years ago to harass me on this or any other platform? You’ve just been added to the suit.”
Nicki Minaj also tagged another user, @TonyBuzbee2, asking the user to “check DM.”
The video shows Nicki Minaj recording herself at a close-up angle while wearing a pink top and leaning toward the camera as she briefly moves and flaunts her upper body during the 12-second clip.
