MultiChoice fined N766m for data protection breaches in Nigeria

The Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) has imposed a hefty fine of N766,242,500 (Seven-Hundred-and-Sixty-Six-Million-Two-Hundred-and-Forty-Two-Thousand-Five-Hundred Naira) on MultiChoice Nigeria for multiple violations of the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDP Act).

The investigation, which began in the second quarter of 2024, was prompted by concerns over suspected breaches of privacy rights affecting MultiChoice subscribers and the alleged illegal transfer of personal data belonging to Nigerians across borders.

In a statement on Sunday, signed by Babatunde Bamigboye, NDPC’s head, legal, enforcement and regulations, the commission said their findings revealed that MultiChoice not only violated the data privacy rights of its subscribers but also those of their friends, even if they were not direct subscribers themselves

The statement reads: "The Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) has fined Multichoice Nigeria the sum of N766,242,500 (Seven-Hundred-and-Sixty-Six-Million-Two-Hundred-and- Forty-Two-Thousand-Five-Hundred naira) for violating the Nigeria Data Protection Act (NDP Act). The investigation which commenced in the second quarter of 2024 was triggered by suspected breach of privacy rights of Multichoice subscribers and illegal cross-border transfer of personal data of Nigerians. NDPC found, among others, that Multichoice violated the data privacy rights of subscribers and their friends who are not necessarily subscribers.

"The Commission also found that Multichoice carries out illegal cross-border transfer of personal data relating to data subjects in Nigeria. The depth of data processing by Multichoice is patently intrusive, unfair, unnecessary and disproportionate. This is a grave affront to fundamental right to privacy as enshrined in section 37 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

"Nigeria is entitled to protect her citizens, and data sovereignty under both international and extant municipal laws as these have far-reaching implication for rule of law, national security and economic growth.

"In line with its standard remediation procedure, the Commission directed Multichoice to carry out appropriate remedial measures. However, the Commission found the measures undertaken by Multichoice in this regard unsatisfactory. For want of cooperation, the Commission has directed Multichoice to pay N766,242,500 for violating the Nigeria Data Protection Act.

"In view of the foregoing, NDPC National Commissioner, Dr Vincent Olatunji, has directed that all outlets through which Multichoice is collecting personal data of Nigerian citizens should be investigated for non-compliance. Any outlet that processes personal data in violation of the NDP Act is liable to penalty under the Act."

Christianity couldn't control African people without first severing our ancestral connection. They called our shrines "demonic, ,," our rituals "witchcraft," and our spiritual power "evil." Why? Because a people who honor their ancestors can never be fully colonized. It wasn't about saving souls - it was about breaking memory.

Further clarification for those who have been asking.

Peter Obi has not left Labour Party.
ADC is the party chosen for the 2027 election. In the meantime, there are elections that are coming up like the Anambra gubernatorial election and the by-elections in which candidates are running under Labour. Peter Obi will be campaigning for those candidates.

Kindly note , it would not mean that he is not with the coalition ADC.
ADC is for the 2027 election

Except for us in Abuja that have council elections in February 2026.

I hope this helps in clarifying the questions many are asking.

Update! Update!! Update!!!

Reliable sources have confirmed to us that starting from next few weeks, APC-paid influencers will flood social media with propaganda, twisting facts to paint the image of Bola Tinubu’s failed government as the best before Nigerians.

These videos — scripted lies — will try to rewrite history and deceive Nigerians into supporting a second term built on suffering and backwardness by the APC.

This will be followed by staged town hall events, funded by public money, to sell a broken vision to a weary people.

We call on Nigerians to rise and reject being deceived by the failure of this administration. We must not them reward with a second term. The suffering of Nigerians must not be reinforced come 2027.

You see ehn…
When Amaechi say,
“Revolution must be bloody for change to happen,” e no lie.
Forget say him na part of dem dem.

The truth be say,
The system we dey fight? E no respond to grammar.
E no dey hear peaceful protest.
You carry placard, dem carry bullet.
You cry for justice, dem ask you to go to court.

So maybe, just dey yarn bcos him time don pass.
Because this Nigeria no dey fear God, no dey fear sense… e no dey fear consequences.

Look around you, has anything really changed without people losing something?

#EndSARS ,they killed our brothers.
Fuel subsidy protest, they used guns.
Charlyboy dem teargass am him pass out.
Even the ballot, dem rig am with violence.
Dem draw blood.

So if revolution go happen for real,
If we really wan take back our land…
E go cost something.
I no fit lie to you, blood must flow.
Even in our fear, we must face whats facing us.

Nigeria no fit change with cruise.
It won’t heal with vibes.
It will take fire.
And fire burns.

Because dem no dey beg evil to pack and go.
You confront it. You drag it. You shake the table till it breaks.

But hear me well
Let the blood that speaks be sacrifice, not senseless death.
Let it be commitment, not chaos.

Revolution is not just about bullets.
It’s about unshakable resolve.
About saying NO and meaning it.
About facing fear and still moving forward.

So if you’re not ready to lose something,
Forget this talk of a better Nigeria.

Dia Father's.
