Digital Television network operator, StarTimes, has reiterated strategic commitment to ensuring quality nationwide signal coverage in Nigeria as critical to meeting June, 2017 deadline for digital migration in the country.
StarTimes Head of PR, Israel Bolaji,said, in a recent chat in Lagos, that subscription to pay TV is growing due to reduced cost of offerings that has been making the service to be more accessible.
For instance, he said, “From being a 40-channel platform in 2010 to offering over 100 channels in 2016. While our value has increased steadily, our decoder and bouquet prices have gone down consistently from N9,000 Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) decoder to N1,990 presently.
“Our innovation is consistent with the renewed drive to improve digital TV entertainment services and viewing experience for Nigerians and further deepens the penetration and acceptance of digital TV across the nation.”
