Why does the FG think it has the power to tell private companies how to manage their businesses in a harsh economic situation? The economic situation they have done absolutely nothing to improve but rather continue to worsen it. Many businesses have had to lay off staff and slash salaries just to keep afloat during this pandemic and also in light of all the new harmful government policies. Did the FG give palliative to private broadcasters to lessen the impact of COVID on them? Has the FG ever provided a good operating environment or it's unaware that Nigeria is a very high-cost economic environment?

The Federal Goverment is asking private businesses to not increase thier prices, and then this same federal goverment goes ahead to increase prices in various sectors. They increased VAT, approved increment in electricity tariffs, 100% increment in train fares on the Abuja-Kaduna route, approved FAAN hike in Passenger Service Charge by 100 % and 300%hike in yearly toll at the MMIA toll gate, , increased price of fuel and watched as commodity prices sky rocket. The Nigerian economy isn't making businesses easy and these organisations have to survive. Government has done absolutely nothing to make it easier for businesses to operate but they go about frustrating private busineeses the more. The FG really has no clue what its responsibilities are.

I believe GOtv is the best in terms of pricing and content. You get more content in sports, kiddies channels and entertainment all at an affordable rate. One gets to enjoy the best of TV without breaking the bank. . Plus different packages for different pocket sizes. The reduction in price is much appreciated.

I know for a fact that MultiChoice Nigeria's subscription prices is still one of the lowest in Africa. Generally the prices of things in the country increases daily and nobody decides to protest or boycott the companies that produces them. I agree with their reasons. We need to Focus on developing the economy rather than attacking companies that help the citizens by providing jobs.


In other news, Premium sports and kiddies channels will now be available to all bouquets on both DStv and GOtv for a month and the open window is entirely free of charge.
