Abuja – A DStv subscriber in Nigeria is suing the satellite pay-TV operator MultiChoice for R302 000 (N5 000 000) and demanding an apology after his service was disconnected - even though his account wasn't in arrears.

In a case before the high court in Abuja, DStv subscriber Chuks Udo-Kalu is suing DStv over alleged breach of contract, claiming he was disconnected although his subscription to the pay-TV giant was fully paid up. He submitted payment receipts and his DStv decoder smartcard as evidence.

Udo-Kalu now demands an apology from MultiChoice, as well as exemplary damages.

Damages for what exactly? Hurt feelings?

Not very good that MC's lawyers didn't show up though, I hope the judge makes an example of them.
