NTA: An Embarrassment To Nigeria by HisSexcellency(m): 7:19pm On Apr 07, 2019
Came back this morning from church only to discover that my cable subscription has expired, so i tuned to the only available channel NTA.

I haven't watched NTA for God knows how long now, i was totally disappointed with what was showing on my tv screen, the picture quality and lighting was very poor, audio quality was awful. It was as if i was teleported by to the 1970s or something.

We are in the 21st century for God sake, what will it cost the management of NTA to overhaul the stations. I believe they get budgets annually running into billions. Privately owned and managed tv stations like Channels, Tvc, Arise, Silverbird, AIT, etc are miles ahead of a supposedly more financed NTA. And what's with the archaic dirty brown colour combination, can't the colours of the station be changed to something more appealing and brighter? Or do we need a two- third majority of the national assembly to rebrand NTA.

For over 20 years ministers come and go and no one thought it wise to rebrand the station, if it involves sacking some persons to get the station running let the needful be done. NTA is supposed to be a national brand and pride, but what we currently have today is nothing to write home about.

I couldn't spare 3 minutes to watch the station today because it was a torture to the eyes and sense of good taste.
Let the appropriate persons sit up and save the only national tv we have as at today.

That's one of the many problem atiku's government intended solving.

You see, the government isn't good with business because its not suppose to behave like an aggressive investor going about profit-chase.

And the media industry is hyperdynamic. It changes all the time. Picture-producing equipments and transmission devices are update fast enough to keep up with consumers demand.

NTA isn't doing a bad jib anyway. The only bad thing I see is, it still being under government control.

If individually owned stations can update transmitters and other equipment to provide quality broadcasting, why can't NTA do same. Are the managers of those others stations not Nigerians too.

I don't know if the directors there also defend their annual budget at the national assembly like other agencies do, because they really have some explaining to do.

Nigeria generally is an embarrassment to herself and her citizens....

When the past and present DG's of NTA have converted this media organization to their personal Money generating supermarkets where they make millions to Buy mansions and drive Exotic cars both home and abroad, this is what you get....


The New name for NTA should be STA ( Sh!thole Television Authority)

oga you want to spoil the colour of your TV screen, who does that? NTA!!!! Chai ,if your TV is LG flat screen, we will sue you for TV abuse. Except you are watching from sharp 12inches.

The last time I watched that station was in 2004 or something! That terrible day when ADC aircraft went down 4min after take off. All other stations were live update trying to locate the crash site. Only NTA was busy showing cassava green leaves.
