MTN To Acquire DSTV And Gotv by metroparrot(op): 6:03pm On May 20, 2017
MultiChoice Africa is said to be having discussions with MTN, South African telecommunications company, regarding the sale of the company.

Naspers Limited, parent company of MultiChoice Africa is the franchise owner of DStv and GOtv.

The offer of MultiChoice Africa will not affect the South African division of the TV network although the plans have not been made public.



“A sale is one of a number of options being considered by Africa’s biggest company by market value, and a final decision hasn’t been reached. Naspers and MTN Group have briefly discussed a deal for MultiChoice Africa, but no agreement was reached”.

Both companies confirmed on Thursday that they are still in talks about sharing TV content, video-on-demand services, on smartphones.

They will use South african profit to buy DSTV, if they do. This deal will kill african entertainment industry, i tell you. There is lots of implications. I just feel pity for nigerian music and nollywood, it could be there end of it.

MTN is taking over the Telecommunication industry gradually because of the greed of our leaders. Though both are south african companies.
Soon dem go buy glo, etisalat...
Soon MTN go dey sell sphaghetti and cement...
I don't understand seem to understand what is wrong with us in Nigeria.

Yet they keep attacking Nigerians in South Africa.

I hope they wont take over Nigeria.

I don't think I see how it will affect Nigerian music and Nollywood? Are they going to stop showing our music and movies on DSTV, or is it that the MTN sponsorship deals of Nigerian celebrities will be withdrawn?

Even though both are SA companies, but MTN buying them is a no no for me. You just be watching your favourite programme and boom, you will be cut off with a message that your subscription has expired even when it has not.

Is it this nonsense they are doing with our calls they want to start with cable?
