The Shift in Entertainment: DStv and Cable TV Facing Extinction in Nigeria

post-image

In a rapidly evolving entertainment landscape, traditional cable television providers like DStv are facing existential threats as consumers embrace new technologies and streaming services. With over 200 million people, the Nigerian market has been a significant stronghold for DStv, but recent trends suggest a looming decline in its dominance.

One of the biggest indicators of this shift is the reluctance of consumers to invest in outdated technologies. The decision to increase the cost of DStv decoders has been met with criticism, as many argue that such devices should be more accessible or even provided for free in order to remain competitive. This sentiment echoes the downfall of once-dominant companies like RIM (Blackberry) and Nokia, who failed to adapt to market forces and technological advancements.

The advent of streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime has fundamentally changed how people consume media. Rather than recharging DStv subscriptions for…

GOD BLESS OKPOGHO PEOPLE IN EZEAGU LGA OF ENUGU STATE – THE RED GOLD OF AFRICA!!!!!!

By: Ikenna Ezeakor

Okpogho in Ezeagu LGA, Enugu State is an ancient city of Igbo land and an iron-smelting community in Ezeagu LGA that gave West Africa the first metallic currency known as Okpogho Manila.

The innovation of this ancient metallic currency: “Ego Igwe/Ego-Onah” was attributed to a great “Wawa man” from the present Ezeagu Igbudu LGA.

The word “Okpogho” which is the Efik fishermen’s term for money or brass was given to this wawa iron maker; when one of the the fishermen noticed that those precious bangles which he fashioned for his daughter “Mgbolie” could be used as a means of exchange of goods and services.

The early Portuguese explorers of the 1470s observed that Copper Bangles “Okpogho Manila” were the principle money and means of exchange all along…

By Sampson Ikemitang

Water is indispensable to life, holding a unique significance among natural resources. While survival might be possible without others, it’s inconceivable without water. Managing water resources involves considerations of quantity, quality, and future variability, vital for societal sustenance and economic development.

Nigeria’s industries are acknowledging the nation’s water scarcity, prompting cultural and technological shifts towards water-wise practices. Therefore, the application and granting of water use licenses are crucial steps towards fostering more sustainable water usage.

To address this, the Federal Executive Council established the Nigeria Integrated Water Resources Management Commission (NIWRMC) in May 2007.

Fintechs should develop products that address the exact needs of their customers (By Mike Cook)

post-image

All around the world businesses are pulling out the stops to achieve growth in what can best be described as challenging economic conditions. Africa is no exception. The continent has long been recognised for its immense potential, and as such businesses across sectors are investing heavily into the continent. Advancements in technology make serving the unbanked and underserved populations in Africa more viable than ever before. However, that does not mean growth comes easily. It is a hyper competitive and complex environment where genuinely understanding your customer is key to growth.

Even with this textbook understanding, there is a strong urge to take the “build it and they will come” approach because we can get caught up in our own technology and view problems from our frame of reference while ignoring the customer. This is typified in the African market where we see multiple shiny apps being dropped across markets…
