They are going backward with time,,,I could remember when they show every Super eagle's matches,even friendly games,,,they do show youth championships,EpL and some sporting events#Live....,...but recently Super Eagle's go dey ball,even at the most crucial matches ,AIT and the Supersports channels go dey transmit am,but NTA will be busy doing some outdated Aboki documentary or farming programm angry

Infact if my Sub exhausts ,I will tune in those free China Channels,it's better to watch those ChinChonHon and their technological inventions
Than to watch Red oil staining my TV screen biko grin

That guy is senseless.


Beyond NNPC, I was actually hoping Atiku would sell off all NTA stations across the 36 states, including NTA Lagos, NTA Benin, NTA Maiduguri, etc. Sell the damn stations to private investors and see how fast they would grow.

We don't need 1000 NTA workers with over 13 stations. CGTN (formerly CCTV) is miles ahead of the useless NTA and has only 1 mega station in the whole of CHINA, one in Kenya (for Africa based reporting), one in the US, one in the U.K, etc. That's how international channels operate.


I agree,Government has no busines now running that Station with so many of them littered everywhere like trash,but they wont do that bearing in mind the kind of toxic politcs we practice in this country...

New Nigerian Newspaper hitherto an FG one was hijacked by the Northerners only to expire with time,same with Daily Times..Now who remembers them now?

Same calamity shall befall NTA sooner or later

When Ben Bruce (your Brother) manged it for five years, why didn't he changed or upgrade it?
You come here dey yan okpata.

It was even Ben Bruce that rebranded it from the parlous state it originally was. Its on record that it was during his tenure that live broadcast started, the station started broad casting 247, state of the art equipment were procured and welfare of staff were improved, but ever since he left, the station has experienced a downward spiral in hands of the Aboki management. Almost all their entire staff are from the north, and I won't be out of place to rename the station, Northern Television Authority

Came back this morning from church only to discover that my cable subscription has expired, so i tuned to the only available channel NTA.

I haven't watched NTA for God knows how long now, i was totally disappointed with what was showing on my tv screen, the picture quality and lighting was very poor, audio quality was awful. It was as if i was teleported by to the 1970s or something.

We are in the 21st century for God sake, what will it cost the management of NTA to overhaul the stations. I believe they get budgets annually running into billions. Privately owned and managed tv stations like Channels, Tvc, Arise, Silverbird, AIT, etc are miles ahead of a supposedly more financed NTA. And what's with the archaic dirty brown colour combination, can't the colours of the station be changed to something more appealing and brighter? Or do we need a two- third majority of the national assembly to rebrand NTA.

For over 20 years ministers come and go and no one thought it wise to rebrand the station, if it involves sacking some persons to get the station running let the needful be done. NTA is supposed to be a national brand and pride, but what we currently have today is nothing to write home about.

I couldn't spare 3 minutes to watch the station today because it was a torture to the eyes and sense of good taste.
Let the appropriate persons sit up and save the only national tv we have as at today.

THERE IS A SENATE COMMITTEE IN CHARGE OF COMMUNICATION, NEWS AND INFORMATION IN THE SENATE.

LET THAT COMMITTEE TAKE UP THE DEPLORABLE AND OUTDATED STANDARD OF THE NTA.

SIMILAR COMMITTEE IS IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.

But unfortunately most of our HONOURABLE only go to the HALLOWED CHAMBERS to fight for their own individual benefit e.g furniture allowances, car allowances, etc

Even money allocated for constitutency project in their various areas is hijacked to their own personal account.

It is the Senators in the senate and Honourables members of House of representatives that is supposed to sight this abnormaly and draw the presidency for necessary action.

But they feel unconcerned.

Boss i understand your situations.
NTA is loaded with people from the north and as such those people we know they are not talented when its comes to innovations.
this is simply pathetic because to get employed there is not by merit,it is simply a family business.

Nigeria as a nation has long way to go
