The House of Representatives has resolved to write the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control to test the Chief Executive Officer of Multichoice Nigeria, Mr John Ugbe, and possibly quarantine him.
An ad hoc committee of the House, set up to investigate the tariff increment by satellite television service providers and their refusal to operate ‘pay per view’, took the decision in Abuja on Wednesday following the failure of the CEO to appear before it.
Idem said the House, again on June 2, passed another resolution, mandating the panel to invite DSTV to explain its tariff increment on June 1. The lawmaker said, “Today is the date they rescheduled the meeting to, that they are going to appear here and make presentation before this committee, and explain to Nigerians the way forward on the implementation of ‘Pay As You Go’ and the recent price hike. Unfortunately this morning, as we were about to start the meeting, we received another letter from DSTV.”
Ruling on the motion, the chairman directed the clerk to the committee to “communicate the decision of this committee to the Director-General of NCDC .”Our correspondent sighted the two letters from Multichoice to the committee.
