A Court of Appeal sitting in Port Harcourt has ordered MultiChoice to sub-license some channels to Metro-digital, in accordance with the rules of the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission.
The presiding judge, Justice Olabode Adegbehingbe, ruled in his judgment on Wednesday that the lower court erred in dismissing the appeal from Metro-Digital since the latter established the existence of the dispute between itself and the first respondent (MultiChoice).
Justice Adegbehingbe also urged the second respondent (NBC) to compel Multi-choice to follow the court order within 21 days.
