SUBSCRIBERS, especially football-loving Nigerians using GOtv, a prepaid satellite cable service, were frustrated on Tuesday night when multiple channels suddenly disappeared.
Reports say that the outage experienced by the subscribers on Tuesday led many customers to demand compensation from Multichoice,
During separate interviews on Wednesday, several football fans watching on GOtv cable were eager to watch their favourite clubs take to the pitch as the Champions League, a popular game where clubs from Europe showcase their skill and determination, returned on Tuesday night.
However, some football fans, especially those watching on GOtv, were disappointed when all the football channels on the cable service suddenly disappeared.
Sports channels like SS BLITZ Africa, SS Football Africa, SS La Liga Africa, SS Select 1, SS Select 2, and ESPN had vanished.
Several other channels, including M-Net Movies 4, ROK, Africa Magic Epic, TNT Africa, Al Jazeera, CNN International, Arise News, TVC News Nigeria, and Channels Television, also went off on Monday and had not been restored.
