In Nigeria, cable TV is widely regarded as the major source of information and overall entertainment these days. They give viewers access to know and see what is going on around the world at their own comfort. In other words, cable TV brings the world to you at a click. The evolution of cable TVs in Nigeria has been outstanding, with its excellence highlighted in series of new generation TV services available today, one of which is the GoTV.

GoTV is owned by Multichoice, one of the biggest and most reliable cable TV service providers in Africa. They also run DSTV, the cable TV with the highest number of viewers in Africa. GoTV, like DSTV, is one of the leading direct broadcast satellite providers in Nigeria. They boast of amazing channels that cover both national and international scenes. They have channels dedicated to local and international sports, News, music, movies, TV series, general knowledge and other core spheres. Asides the fact that this cable TV boasts of a relatively high number of channels, they offer flexibility in their subscription packages.

GoTV is regarded by many as a cheaper version of DSTV. Although they maintain almost the same quality in terms of picture and sound, GoTV decoders and basic subscriptions are cheaper than DSTV’s. This is largely due to the difference in signal strength and number of channels available. While DSTV is satellite based, GoTV is terrestrial based.

GoTV operates on the DVB-T2 platform, a form of digital terrestrial broadcasting technology recently introduced. GoTV is available in some other countries in Africa including Uganda, Ghana, Zambia, and so on. The main advantage GoTV has over DSTV is that it does not require a satellite dish, which means there is zero cost of installation. It is very easy to install and can be used with any TV antenna to further strengthen the GOtv signals.

In this post, we will take a look at prices of GoTV decoders. We will also consider the different bouquets on the platform and how much they cost.
