The Tribunal has intervened to prevent MultiChoice from raising subscription fees for DStv and Gotv services.
The Competition and Consumer Protection Tribunal (CCPT) in Abuja issued a ruling on Monday preventing Multi-Choice Nigeria Limited from implementing its planned price hikes and increases for products and services set to take effect on May 1st.
The interim order was granted by a tribunal consisting of three members, with Saratu Shafii as the presiding officer. This decision came after an ex-parte motion was presented by Ejiro Awaritoma, who is the legal representative of Festus Onifade, the applicant.
