Renowned
sport analyst Biola Kazeem has taken to Twitter to express his thoughts on the
inability of TSTV to commence operation 17 days after launching.
He also flayed
Nigerians on their gullibility and willingness to accept promises without
questioning
See his
tweets below
If you want
to understand why MMM cleaned out in Nigeria,just looked at how supposedly even
educated people gobbled TSTV’s promises
A company
shows up, promises illogical things & when you ask normal questions, you
are labelled an unpatriotic enemy & shouted down
All
explanations as to how TV rights work met deaf ears. Supposedly educated people
who should know better too jumped on the wagon
It is 17
days after launch, no decoder, no transmission & letters of disassociation
from supposed channels partners are piling up.
It is tragic
that Nigerians are so gullible. So easily moved by promises too good to be
true. So unquestioning & lacking curiosity.
Where in the
world is premium cable content cheap? Where in the world is a luxury service
deemed a commodity & sold at value prices?
It is only
in Nigeria that even educated people are convinced PREMIUM entertainment
content should be cheap. HITV tried that model & failed
To disguise
the mass foolishness of gobbling up promises without questions, DSTV is now
said to be sabotaging TSTV. How so? No answer.
How come
DSTV did not sabotage StarTimes who are doing extremely well? Kwese who have
done some solid work in rights acquisition. How?
Then came
the “TSTV is our own.”How so?You have shares there?Your father has shares
there?You will get a share of profits?How is it our own?
Supposedly
educated said TSTV will employ 5,000 Nigerians so we must support. The people
in the DSTV ecosystem in Nigeria are who? Japanese
The people
in the Startimes and Kwese ecosystem are from Nicaragua apparently. Only TSTV
will employ Nigerians.Epidemic ignorance lives here
The cable TV
category is powered by content you have acquired. It is not powered by faux
patriotism, or tax breaks or anything else.
If TSTV are
serious, they will invest money in acquiring the content people want to watch
& not make false promises.
No serious
company “launches” and products remain inaccessible for over month. Logic will
tell you something doesn’t add up.
But logic
doesn’t live in Nigeria. Only ignorance. That’s why MMM took all your life
savings. That’s why TSTV got tax break from FG
That’s why
people believed you can show content someone BOUGHT exclusively. That’s why you
think DSTV is an enemy & TSTV is ours.
Till logic
replaces ignorance even with supposedly educated people, there will be more
MMMs preying on the mass idiocy of Nigerians. Selah.
