Nigeria’s morning headlines are abuzz with intriguing developments. In Rivers State, Governor Nyesom Wike (PunchNG, 2026) has reportedly drawn fresh battle lines with APC governors over a controversial decision. On the international front, President Donald Trump’s administration has launched Trump TV, a 24/7 streaming channel that comes in response to a dispute that saw major US news networks halt their pool coverage (PunchNG, 2026). According to VanguardNGR (2026), this move is a result of the White House banning three leading outlets from the White House.
