It's like RT has never been available on DSTV Nigeria O! Channel 407 is not available in any bouquet on DSTV Nigeria. I have been going through a lot of stress to be streaming RT online not knowing that it is even available on DSTV in some countries. Why is Multichoice discriminating against Nigeria? All the prominent channels are in DSTV South Africa even though we in Nigeria pay through the nose to watch DSTV. This is an eye opener!
Blame your government.

It was never available in Nigeria so nothing concerns me. My soup nearly burned, that is my own priority as of now.

One of the disadvantanges of being a colonized continent. Why can't we reason and act indipendently rather queue in whatever the west brings along whether good or bad.

Not yet to me though. The opinions are balanced from what I'm still seeing.
Well to me when she was talking about the Russian-Ukranian conflict, she failed to elaborate on the donbass region of Ukraine

Also they was a part that she seems to dwell on the fact Putin didn't tell his ex-wife he is going to run for president

I get but it's not enough. I like it when they call out the bullshit of both sides. I think they do that enough.

All these evil organizations were silent when US was invading Iraq, Syria, Libya. grin grin grin

Putin must not stop until Ukraine is taken over completely and a new leader is installed in the position of the Western puppet.

The Western puppet we have in Nigeria has led to brain drain in Nigeria. The suffering we are going through in Nigeria is not important to the West grin grin

Shame
thank God, I thought lots of Nigerians are not aware.
This is why USA always support useless leaders in Africa

Dstv to the trash
when the chips are down, the west will turn everything into weapon against you.
Just take Russia for example
I don't want Russia to become world power but rather I believe the world needs a strong Russia and China to check the West.
No one should be too powerful, it's against nature for one nation to be too powerful.
Alexander with all his power couldn't conquer Ethiopia and India queen Candice ensured that.
Cyrus of Persia couldn't enter Ethiopia.

USA must have barrier.

Well subscribers are demanding that it should be reinstated, they paid for it, they don't wanna be involved in the western propaganda.


Celtic was fined by football governing body, because their fans supported Palestine during the height of isreal onslaught in the Gaza strips

Mesut ozil was asked to keep quite and not bring world politics into football when he cried against the killings of Muslim in Myanmar.

But man city players were seen wearing flags of Ukraine's, zinchenko was given the captain band just to identify with the Ukrainian.

Other sport governing bodies have sanctioned Russia

My question is why bring world politics into the beautiful sport we have come to lovehuh
double standard and hypocrisy is a Westerner

Wow Pictures! shocked

RT, the Russian state-owned news channel formerly known as Russia Today, is no longer available on DStv, just one day after MultiChoice Group said it had no intention of canning it. But the decision was out of the pay-television broadcaster’s hands.

Viewers who tune into DStv channel 407 (in South Africa) – where RT is meant to be housed – are now greeted with a message saying the “channel is closed” and are encouraged to check the television guide for when it might open again.

The closure of the channel was spotted by an eagle-eyed TechCentral reader on Wednesday evening. The channel also seems to have been suspended from the online streaming version of DStv – the stream simply wouldn’t start when TechCentral tried to play it.

The channel’s disappearance comes a day after MultiChoice told this publication that it would not pull the channel of its pay-TV bouquets, despite an EU-wide ban and restrictions placed on it – and another Russian news broadcaster Sputnik – by technology giants including Google, YouTube, Microsoft, Meta Platforms and Twitter.

But MultiChoice, it has transpired, has nothing to do with taking RT off DStv. In response to a query from TechCentral, the company confirmed RT was pulled off its platform effective 2 March and “not be carried on the DStv platform until further notice”.

“Sanctions imposed on Russia have led to the global distributor of the channel ceasing to provide the broadcast feed to all suppliers, including MultiChoice,” it said.

MultiChoice relies on satellite backhaul links to receive its programming. It also distributes its channels to viewers using an Intelsat satellite. Intelsat is headquartered in Luxembourg, which is a member state of the EU.

The bans and restrictions on RT and Sputnik come as many nations impose severe sanctions on Russia for invading Ukraine, a move that is expected to cripple the country’s economy. Harsh sanctions have also been imposed on Putin and his inner circle, as well as many of the country’s oligarchs, who have prospered in the corrupt Russian system.
i watch rt from their app. Although it is a propaganda channel but it gives you a balanced view of things.

Russia is still Russia, Putin don't care about all these sanctions, I just pity ordinary Russian nationals.
A leader who doesn't care of such sanctions, with 100% knowledge it will hurt his people, not him, is a horrendous leader.

Watch!

They would soon be telling African countries they are not allowed to participate & compete in WC or Olympics unless they establish pro-homosexuality and transgender laws in their country.
Very possible. Same was done when our president, in our usual begging fashion, went to beg for money (loan), one of the conditions was to legalise gay marriages

When they subjugate his nation and dominate his people for their own exploitation, his people would still suffer (like Black Monkey nations).

Only Press TV (Iran) comes close to RT:
https://presstv.com/

Surprisingly, Press TV too is blocked. I guess the West does not want us to be hearing both sides of the story which will enable us to make up our own minds. They want to brainwash us with their own propaganda through the so called mainstream media. Sha, as the great philosopher Bob Marley said: You can fool some people sometimes but you can't fool all the people all the time. By the way, what happened to that freedom of speech and freedom of the press they have so often been propagating? I guess they were referring to freedom of their own speech and their own press. Their double standard is just mind boggling. I am short of words.
