So has mine for 2 weeks now, then yesterday all our channels were opened, come see celebration for house!
Woke up this morning to see everything gone again.

their tariff is on the high side
they don milk naija tire

We have paid for it since the beginning of the year and should not be treated as if it is a largesse.

All this capitalist sef., when they negotiated low for contents and give us repetitive movies and soaps, we still paid huge subscriptions to watch. In my opinion, this is not free.
