 PRESIDENT TINUBU CONGRATULATES GOVERNOR HYACINTH ALIA ON HIS 60TH BIRTHDAY President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Reverend Father Hyacinth Alia,  Governor of Benue State, and an ordained priest on his 60th birthday. In a statement personally signed by President Tinubu, he says "I commend Governor Alia for his transformative efforts to industrialise the state and expand its road network. Benue State, famously Nigeria's food basket, now has tomatoes and fruit juice, beer, nylon and polythene factories, as well as a large-scale bakery, providing jobs for its people and adding value to its agricultural products. The iconic underpasses in Makurdi and Gboko have also eased traffic and improved urban life." It adds that Governor Alia's political journey is simply that of faith made manifest, ordained a Catholic priest in 1990 by Bishop Athanasius Atule Usuh of Makurdi Catholic Diocese.

 Trump says we need to focus money on war, not daycare


At an Easter Luncheon on April 1, President Donald Trump made remarks that sparked controversy over federal spending priorities. 


He argued that the government should not subsidize daycare, Medicaid, or Medicare, insisting that such programs should be handled by individual states. 


Instead, he said federal resources must be focused on military protection and ongoing wars, particularly the conflict in Iran.


Trump explained that states should raise their own taxes to cover daycare costs, while the federal government could lower taxes slightly in return. 


His comments came after funding cuts in January to daycare programs in five Democrat-led states: California, Colorado, Illinois, Minnesota, and New York. 


He dismissed federal involvement in social programs as “little scams,” saying the government’s role should be limited to national defense.


The timing of his remarks drew attention to the financial trade-offs between war spending and domestic programs. 


The Iran War has cost the U.S. an estimated $38 billion so far, with about $1 billion added daily. 


By comparison, universal pre-kindergarten for all American children would cost roughly $40 billion nearly the same amount. 


The luncheon was live-streamed on YouTube, but the White House later set the video to private.
