It stated, “Our uplink facility will be impacted by the ongoing Lagos-Calabar coastal road construction project. As a result, we are forced to relocate. From Sunday, 5th May, 2024, to Thursday, 7th May, 2024, our technical team will be working tirelessly to relocate and minimize disruptions during the exercise.”

Appreciating customers for their patience and understanding during the period, it reiterated its dedication to delivering the quality service and support they expect from DStv and GOtv.
