The student body urged the Federal Government and the National Assembly to address the issue expeditiously, saying that it will stands firmly against the unjustifiable price hike, especially given the current economic challenges faced by Nigerians.

A press statement issued on Thursday by NANS spokesperson,

Comrade Gundu Mimidoo Joy said it is deplorable to witness such a significant increase in subscription fees in a time when many are already struggling to make ends meet.

“The rationale provided by Multichoice Nigeria Limited attributing the price increases to a “rise in the cost of business operations” in Nigeria is not acceptable. The impact of this price hike will undoubtedly burden the citizens further, exacerbating the financial strain already being experienced.

“It is imperative that the Federal Government and the National Assembly intervene to regulate such exorbitant price increments. The interests and welfare of Nigerian citizens must be safeguarded, and the authorities must ensure that companies operate with fairness and consideration towards their consumers,” she said.

NANS also emphasised that the Federal Government and the National Assembly must raise their voices against this injustice and take necessary steps to address this situation promptly. An urgent dialogue must be initiated to protect the interests of the Nigerian populace and prevent further exploitation.

“We call upon all stakeholders to collaborate in finding a sustainable solution that benefits the consumers and ensures equitable access to essential services such as pay-TV. It is vital that regulations are put in place to prevent arbitrary price hikes that disproportionately affect the average Nigerian.

 

“This unwarranted increase in subscription fees by Multichoice is a matter of grave concern as the Nigerian masses are already over burdened with inflation, NANS urges all relevant authorities to address this issue with the seriousness it deserves.

 

“We wish to state that failure by DSTV to revert to Status quo with the next 7 working days shall be met with a mass action to the Multi choice Headquarters in Abuja and Lagos,” the statement added.
