Multichoice announces Price Adjustment on DStv and GOtv Packages with effect from 1st May 2024. So why the increment when naira is appreciating against dollar? pic.twitter.com/n0AnVx7KEn

What’s the justification for the continuous price increase by Multichoice / DSTV?
For me this doesn’t make any sense at all and whenever prices are increase it doesn’t come down.

DSTV needs competition in Nigeria, the monopoly is what is causing this rubbish.
15,700 to watch The Equalizer every day is insane
