The fight over DStv subscription fees in Ghana has intensified.
The National Communications Authority (NCA) says it has received MultiChoice Ghana’s response to its threat to suspend the company’s authorisation and its demand for a breakdown of the pricing model.
The regulator disclosed today that it has also secured key commitments from the pay-TV operator following engagements after MultiChoice’s public statement on September 5, 2025.
According to the NCA, MultiChoice Ghana has agreed to fully participate in the Stakeholder Committee ordered by the Minister for Communications, Digital Technology and Innovations to evaluate DStv pricing in Ghana.
The company has also committed to respect due process, the laws of Ghana, and the rights of its consumers.
The first meeting of the Stakeholder Committee is scheduled for Monday, September 8, 2025, where MultiChoice’s pricing structure is expected to come under intense scrutiny.
The NCA has assured the public that it will continue to provide updates as the process unfolds.
