I believe this will give room to Nigerians to home grown pay satellite Tv that multichoice has been pressing down not to see the light of the day. |

SmartPolician:Same way Coca-cola acquired Chivita. Who told you Multichoice staffer would be smiling to the bank. Expect downsizing because every business is out to make profit. |

SalamRushdie:😂😂😅😂😂 I don't complain about bad government, I simply restrategize and turn the situation to my advantage because experience has taught me that it will be difficult to have a perfect system of government in Nigeria except we switch to a regional system of government or we go our separate ways. |

sanandreas:Multichoice were too selfish. If the new handlers introduce pay as you go model, they'll bounce back and record more profit than Multichoice. Business is about collecting little from a large number than much from a few. Multichoice were collecting much from a few. If Canal+ follow their footsteps, they'll fail woefully because right now, DSTV is down. Let them begin sell of airtime and open all channels. No need to segment into standard and premium packages. They could charge more when one for some channels, charge less for some, and keep others free. That way, there's something for everyone. Above all, they should maintain high quality. |

You people that watch DSTV content will now begin to experience in a subtle way mind controlling contents that will never ignite your consciousness but will subject you into slave-like zombies that don’t think for themselves. The last time I checked I thought we Africans are trying to root out all forms of neocolonialism and now the French of all investors are bold to acquire the biggest and largest media brand in Africa. Does it mean there are no rich investors in Africa or is the investors(owners of DSTV) in Africa are so greedy that they couldn’t allow DSTV to be sold to fellow African investors |

Nigerians are yet to realise that APC-inflicted poverty is the reason they can no longer afford dstv subscription. We will blame everybody (mtn, oil marketers, banks etc.) except the main culprit. Shey na until the evil party kpai everybody before we go get sense? |

SmartPolician:That multichoice is failing in Nigeria due to the low purchasing power of Nigerians, does not mean it's failing elsewhere. The company got full control of DStv together with everything else owned by multichoice. Please be objective when making comments especially when you're on a post's page one. |

Please, star time and dstv which one is better base on their subscriptions |

The only thing that LL save these ones is just to reduce their subscriptions across the board, Nothing more nothing less |

SmartPolician:The smartphone is your hands is supposed the to make you smart, Canal+ has been a shareholder in MultiChoice. |

SmartPolician:Yes they have a strategy. That strategy is to push anti-sahel propaganda to millions of subscriber across Africa. France has been in deep economic trouble since they got kicked out of the Sahel, they are actively sponsoring terrorism in the Sahel region and also feel the need to control narratives through media in Africa. This is media warfare and Africans need to wake the F up! |
