ok

No long story o jare.
Multichoice should tell us clearly.
Our country is rotten without electricity.
Obasanjo stole the $16 billion meant for it.
Fashola is also busy stealing his own while doing us bojuboju of paparazzi photos.

ok ooo..they are lucky nigerians has got lot of issues to worry about now....if not eh dem for carry una matter for head

Fvck lia Mohammed. Yes fvck him

I standwithmultichoice. when Nigeria is infrastructurally DEAD what do you expect them to do. nonsence

Then stick to ur BBC instead of BBN....d program loses its sense of identity when u do so.....it's more like hosting African Cup of Nations in London!

Omoakinsuyi:
Your excuse is unacceptable. Multichoice must be fined like MTN

Yes

Una dad. Besides who give a rat's Ass..?

.... Senseless reason! :::: learn to respect our pride!...

TonyeBarcanista:
If I was the Minister I will shut down the show from airing on our Naija screen.

The show has no economic, cultural, social or societal impact.

Nonsense

is it airing on any Nigerian screen?


...to the topic, the show lacks depth. The guys there don't sound intelligent enough. Their conversations are lousy and ....just Nonsense.

.... Senseless reason! :::: learn to respect our pride!... If i'm in charge that show wont be aird in 9ja!

I blame buhari....

That is a flimsy excuse by my standard. You made a business decision to execute and produce that show in South Africa because of the economic and investment returns. You are cheating the Nigerian government, economy, businesses and tax system.

Multichoice and MTN business orientation is to enrich South Africa government and economy at the expense of Nigeria. It is obvious with your business models and operations.

@All.

First of all, you all have to understand the show is not Nigerian. Just because it is called "Big brother Naija" doesn't mean it's Nigerian. Big brother Naija is just a name.

The show is owned by South Africans!!!. Therefore, they have right to host it any location in the world.

They own the show, they paid for it, the show is airing on their TV network. So, why is Lai Mohammed complaining?

I made some research on how TV programming works in Nigeria, cause I' am planning creating a TV show. See how foreigners control Nigerian TV airwaves https://www.nairaland.com/3576350/how-foreigners-control-nigerian-tv

MultiChoice, organisers of the Big Brother Naija Reality TV have explained why they're hosting the show in South Africa.


A statement issued by Caroline Oghuma on behalf of the company, said, “‎We have a fully equipped house in South Africa, which is used for the Big Brother shows.

“This means that we are able to achieve high production values whilst meeting tight timelines and ensuring the show comes to our viewers on time as planned, and with the same globally renowned quality. “

The house has played host to other Big Brother countries including; the general Big Brother Africa, Mozambique, Angola and now Nigeria,’’ the statement quoted Oghuma as saying.

MultiChoice does not owe anyone any explanations. They are not obligated to the Nigerian government. Music videos and products commercials are shot outside of the country yet the products are consumed by Nigerians. The Minister of Information is really dabbling into another man's affairs.

If it is owned and meant for South Africa, then it should not be called Big Brother Naija, especially when all participants are presented as Nigerians. I disagree with you.

If you operate business in Nigeria and you are under the illusion that you have no obligations to the Nigerian government and stakeholders, you must be out of your mind and your eyes go soon clear when they wield the big stick.

They have also hosted Big brother Africa, Big brother Mozambique, Big brother Angola, e.t.c all in South Africa. It is their show, not ours!!!.

donfemo:
Well it doesn't portray how we live in Nigeria. But they have their reasons. But I would have prefer while the show is on Nepa take light and they ask Efe to go and put fuel inside Gen. Lmao!

Then at night the original owner of the house would come and pack his load and equipments

Then our dependable police force would arrive 3 hours later to ask wey dem dey?

Big Brother Africa encompasses Africa but Big Brother Naija is about Nigeria hence, the opinion of the Nigerian government and stakeholders matters. It is just like making money with someones brand without giving credit to the person or creating benefit for the person. That is very wrong!

No need to explain jare. We are our own problem. Anybody wey no like should pack well

Excuses as flimsy as they come from jealous ridden South Africa. so, its so difficult to equip a house in Nigeria for this purpose. Your yeye excuse is only for kids. South Africa has never meant well for Nigerians and all their interests are only selfish and never mutual only that Nigeria has a backward unintelligent government to really checkmate this African parasites.

No need to explain jare. We are our own problem. Anybody wey no like should pack well...

Instead of complaining, inform your useless government to create the enabling environment for the TV industry in Nigeria, and you'll see our TV producers also producing "Big brother SA" and hosting it on NTA in Abuja.

I don't think you understand what's going on here, cause if you do you'll understand you can't eat your cake and have it!!.

Is Multichoice not in Nigeria?


You are right! the show is useless

Then lets sue them for using Nigeria for exploitative commercial gain by naming a project that add no value what soever to Nigeria as an entity.

I already figured you are not a Nigerian. I don't need to convince you but we shall deal with Multichoice appropriately if found guilty of violating or infractions again the Nigerian laws or regulatory broadcasting standards.

First, the show isn't created for Nigerians. Multichoice is a satellite TV broadcaster, broadcasting worldwide. I' am not in Nigeria now, but I' am watching the show.

Second, "Naija" is not an official brand name. You think they're stupid?

Yes, I' am a Russian.

Nigeria has created the atmosphere for foreigners to dominate your TV airwaves. And so shall it be, until you're knowledgeable enough to understand you should be blaming your incompetent government, not Multichoice.
