The drama continues over the 20% hike subscription fee in DSTV and GOTV by MultiChoice Nigeria as they are challenging the jurisdiction of the Federal High Court to adjudicate a suit filed against them.
Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke, on 2nd of April, granted an order of interim injunction restraining MultiChoice from enforcing its planned price increase.
However, counsel for MultiChoice, Moyosore Onigbanjo, says his clients did not obey the order because it was made after the new price had gone into effect on the 1st of April. Besides, he said MultiChoice was not bound to obey the order since it is already challenging the court’s jurisdiction.
Furthermore, he also pointed out that the order stated that “status quo” should be maintained, arguing that status quo as at the time the order was made meant the new subscription rates, not the old prices.
Meanwhile, Justice Aneke has adjourned the case till the 5th of May for hearing of the preliminary objection.
Hmnnn....this is seriously turning out to become one of their Telemundo series I tell you
