But why on earth would you want to set up a TV station, when you can easily buy airtime on any TV station to air your shows? On satellite tv DSTV, there are Nigerian-owned stations such as Spice TV, Trybe TV, AfricaMagic channels, Trace, Channels TV, Galaxy TV etc., that you can easily contact and get them to show your programmes for a fee.

The wahala of getting broadcasting equipment, facilities, infrastructure, NBC approval, broadcasting frequencies, well trained staff (both technical & commercial) etc., can be huge.

dude I don't understand you, why didn't all those stations you mentioned go for air time in other tv stations, why did they start up their own thing

Because they felt they had money to splash around. Check out their stations. Nothing to differentiate them from the rest. With the exception of just a few stations, most of them are all copying one another. What is the difference between Planet TV, SoundCity, MTV Base, Trace Naija etc? The all sound alike & play musical videos back-to-back in the same way.
