You should understand that, the value is different. Also, the laws in south Africa will not allow the people to pay and get ripped by the multichoice company. 154 Likes 10 Shares |

MMempire: You can watch only NTA for free. They didn't force guns on your head to subscribe. It is DSTV that will approve minimum wage for your country? The diesel they use to run their company in Nigeria is ten times cheaper than in Southafrica? Kenya even pays more for DSTV subscription than Nigeria. 59 Likes 7 Shares |

JASONjnr: Is multi choice ripping off Nigerians ? Let's even assume that most people are on subscription (which definitely is not the case), multi choice will just be getting a measily $26 per subscriber every month!!!! Multi choice is not at fault here , rather it is the government that is making nigeria bad for business 57 Likes 5 Shares |

South Africa, the national minimum wage was first implemented on the 1st of January 2019 at a level of 3,897 ZAR (259.27 USD) per month; this was later adjusted to 4,045.09 ZAR (269.25 USD) per month 44 Likes 7 Shares |

JASONjnr:In Nigeria, eating in a mamaput t, normal restaurant, Sheraton hotel will not cost the same. I don't understand why this DSTV should be a national topic. Anyone that can't afford DSTV should go for startimes or others. 47 Likes 5 Shares |

Muhammad234: Anyone running a business will check for things that contributes to the cost of production or running such business. I don't know which company uses minimum wage as a criteria to set production cost and selling cost. Is it DSTV that increased minimum wage for Southafrican government? 26 Likes 1 Share |

jmoore:Lol! Please hike it and see how the alternatives begin to be patronised. I just bought three free to air disc one for Movies, one for news and the other for sports. I don't even know much about it or how it works because my son introduced it to me. But it cost us 300k+ for purchase and installations. Started using since november and up till now, we've paid no dime for subs because there ain't any. I wonder why people can't just switch. 23 Likes 1 Share |

If Multichoice was a Nigerian company that never repatriate profits abroad and also operating in a competitive market. Dstv no go 20k 11 Likes 1 Share |

jmoore:Poor minimum wage of 30k in Nigeria means that Multichoice pay lesser on staff wages in Nigeria (part of cost of production) in Nigeria than in SA. One of the reasons why the charge here should be cheaper. 28 Likes 4 Shares |

Princewill1: Wage is down the ladder when compared to price of diesel. I doubt if DSTV pays any of its staff 30k per month. Most big private companies have better pay package. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Muhammad234:direct your anger to the government. DStv will not spend millions of dollars to acquire TV rights only to give it to Nigerians free. They're adjusting and operating with current economic realities 20 Likes |

APC stooges has taught us how to get out of criticism by comparing prices in other countries. DSTV is right.

jmoore:Firstly, If price of diesel is the cause of the hike then why hasn't MTN (same South African coy) increased their tarrif all these years? But Dstv has increased over 3x since last year. By the way, Multichoice doesn't consume 1% of the amount of diesel MTN used in running thousands of it's antennas across the country. Secondly, no matter what big private companies pays in Nigeria, as long as the pay is in naira, it can't march up what same position pays in South Africa when you convert both salaries in USD. They are just giving filmsy excuses to exploit the huge population due to monopoly and poor govt oversight and poeple like you who give in easily are buying it with no scrutiny. 20 Likes 4 Shares |

Princewill1:I don't use DSTV. The startimes I was managing last year, I abadoned it because it is wasteful subscribing when power supply is poor. Choice! Cable tv is not a neccesity. There is no monopoly. Some people are obsessed with DSTV, there are alternatives. 8 Likes |

How can you compare those who are on pay as you view, to we that pays a flat monthly rate? The comparism does not jell at all.. we have more subscribers than South Africa, so the spread of their expenses per viewers should be low in Nigeria.
