A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos has restrained MultiChoice Nigeria Limited, owners of DStv from implementing their 20% increase in tariffs.
The restraining order was given by Justice C.J. Aneke following a suit filed by two Lagos-based legal practitioners, Osasuyi Adebayo and Oluyinka Oyeniji challenging the increase.
MultiChoice Nigeria Limited announced price increase for all its satellite pay TV bouquets in Nigeria, in March; said it was necessary for the company to continue offering good quality programming to its subscribers. 

The new tariffs was supposed to commence on April 1st.  There would be no increase until the court re-adjourns on April 16th.
