AGAIN MULTICHOICE INCREASES PRICES FOR DSTV, GOTV PACKAGES
Multiple choice Nigerian DStv and GOtv operators have revealed the second price rise for their packages this year, with increases of at least 19% for every bouquet.
Five months after its previous price increase review, on November 6, 2023, the new prices went into effect.
The most recent hike was attributed by Multichoice to “rising costs in all aspects of our business, including content acquisition, infrastructure maintenance, and operating expenses” in a statement sent to its subscribers.
Furthermore, it cited “the current economic challenges in Nigeria,” which include high inflation and a depreciating Naira, as the cause of the rise.
The new prices for DStv packages are:
Premium: N29,500 (+20%)
Compact+: N19,800 (+19%)
Compact: N12,500 (+19%)
Confam: N7,400 (+19%)
Yanga: N4,200 (+20%)
The new prices for GOtv packages are:
Supa Plus: N12,500 (+19%)
Supa: N7,600 (+19%)
Max: N5,700 (+19%)
Jolli: N3,950 (+19%)
Jinja: N2,700 (+20%)
Recall that shortly before raising the cost of DSTV subscriptions, Multichoice revealed a $72 million shortfall in its third-quarter financial report.
