Hmmmmm, the gang of LAGOS hasn't been able to successfully keep this one in the local and AFRICAN market. I hope talents like JADE OSIBERU would be retained though.

That's what happens when you try to put mouths everywhere like pig, all in the name of investment. They should go and ask Netflix how long it took them to be market leader

NETFLIX rules Nigeria
Such a herculean task to dethrone Netflix. Just as other pay TVs are unable to deal with DSTV!

Broke continent
Nope, competition pulled them off. Netflix and showmax are still doing great and people arent willing to quit them yet. Prime couldnt meet up. It is normal. U win some and lose some. For now, netflix and showmax rule the continent streaming including Youtube and people stream like fire on those platforms.

Pirates don spoil business.....Moreover, Nigeria data dey quick finish, if na outside country now to stream no go hard local man, but for here, 2.5gb no dey last 24hrs.

Imagine their Nigerian team operating outside Nigeria....now that is fu*ked up shocked
Why do 2.5gig?
Better to do 5k for 25 gig plus 25 min talk time. E de Tay to finish.
Better still get one of those fiber optics eg luli fiber. It's like 11k monthly with unlimited data. If 11k is much, you and your neighbors, flatmates, wife etc can split the 11k, the more the merrier.

The Reason For This Is Solely Because The Partnership Wasn't Paying Off.

They Needed To Think Outside The Box To Help Combat Piracy And Expensive Data in Nigeria.

South Africa is a developed nation
Nigeria is an under develop nation.

There is not a single thing in development criteria that you will ever be beta than South Africa. They are not your mate. You are talking to a Nigerian not South African.

All the hype around the substandard trash our producers were making was all propaganda.

I knew they weren't getting good stream numbers. Why on earth will I use my hard earned Prime subscription to watch home videos ? All those She must be obeyed and tribe of judah nonsense are things I only watch from free of I ever want to watch such nonsense . I download them and watch free only


Tribe of judah was not released to any streaming platform, it was released only to the Cinema.

Only a wretched fellow would be so happy pirating the hardwork of others you can go to jail for that in developed countries like UK and US

You can only compare if you've been to South Africa if not, please don't bother. Forget all this things you read or see on the media.

My brother, South Africa is better and bigger. Don't let us decieve ourselves.

I can only pray Nigeria grows and get better too.
