Trump TV goes live as White House feud with US media escalates
The White House has launched Trump TV, a free 24/7 online stream featuring Donald Trump’s speeches, announcements and administration highlights, as a legal and political dispute over White House press access intensifies.
Political tensions are rising ahead of Nigeria's 2027 elections as FCT Minister Nyesom Wike criticized some APC governors for pursuing their own political interests. Wike emphasized his commitment to securing President Bola Tinubu's re-election while allowing support for candidates of their choice in other contests. Meanwhile, the White House launched a 24/7 streaming channel called Trump TV in response to a dispute with major news organizations.
Nigeria is also on the brink of acquiring 12 AH-1Z Viper attack helicopters from the United States to bolster its military capabilities. Aliko Dangote announced plans to invest over $10 billion in Nigeria's power sector to address the country's electricity crisis and promote industrialization. Lastly, a former Vice-Chancellor of LASU suggested that public universities may need to charge at least N1 million annually per student to achieve financial independence due to soaring operational expenses.
