Pay TV company, Multichoice has adjusted the subscription prices for DStv and GOtv package in Nigeria.
This change came after a court order instructed the pay television company to stop the price increase.
The adjustments are now visible on the company’s apps as of Sunday, June 16, 2024.
MultiChoice had initially planned to challenge the order from the Competition Consumer Tribunal (CCT) due to a decrease in its subscriber base in Nigeria, losing over a million subscribers.
The old prices are as follows: DStv Premium package: N29,500 (down from N37,000); DStv Compact+ package: N19,800 (down from N25,000); DStv Compact Bouquet: N12,500 (down from N15,700); DStv Confam package: N7,400 (down from N9,300); DStv Yanga package: N4,200 (down from N5,100); DStv Padi package: N2,950 (down from N3,600).
GOtv subscribers will also see a reduction in prices, which is as follows: GOtv Super+ package: N12,500 (down from N15,700); GOtv Super package: N7,600 (down from N9,600); GOtv Max package: N5,700; GOtv Joli package: N3,950; GOtv Jinja package: N2,700 (down from N3,300).
It is yet to be confirmed if MultiChoice will also provide a month of free subscription as directed by the court.
There have been no official statement from the company regarding this matter.
The price adjustments were made to reflect the current market conditions in Nigeria, including high inflation and naira devaluation.
