DSTV/GOTV To Shut Down Operations In Nigeria June 2019
The Federal Government may have notified the management of MultiChoice DSTV/GOTV that their operations, in Nigeria, will come to an end in 2019 as their license expires June next year.

According to a letter to that effect issued, on Tuesday, by the Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC), the license issued to them in 2014 by NBC will not be renewed because it was not in line with Digital Switch Over (DSO) White Paper.

If Multichoice DSTV/GOTV will ever operate in Nigeria again after expiration of its license, the only option left for them is to go to licensed Signal Distribution company, that is Pinnacle Communications Ltd or ITS.

GOTV has been accused of being used as a conduit to siphon foreign exchange from Nigeria by its parent company, South African Multi Choice DSTV.

Hmmmm a lot of business will be closed down again! Cause some entrepreneurs also depend on this company

The country will be see as unstable for businesses

It will also scare foreign investors away!

Which might take this country back to square one!

I really do not like their mode of operations either. I believe it should be pay as you watch for starters

So let there be guildlines for ALL businesses then if they won't follow it, you can now show them the door!
