Safia Aminami Issoufou Oumarou (born 15 April 1982), known professionally as Safiath, is a Nigerien singer, rapper, and songwriter.
Safiath was born in Khartoum,[1] and is ethnically Tuareg and Kanuri;[2] she was born to a Sudanese mother and a Nigerien father.[3] She went to Morocco to study economics and banking. In Rabat, she joined a group that performed salsa, in which she played guitar; she then returned to Niger, where she found it easier to gain work as a musician than using her degrees.[4]
