The Federal Executive Council (FEC), has approved rolling out of the Digital Switch Over (DSO) in 31 states, as N9.4 billion was paid to stakeholders, including service providers.
Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information, at the inauguration of the ministerial task force saddled with the responsibility of driving the DSO project, revealed this and said the process could create over one million jobs in the next three years. He stated that as part of the Federal Government’s efforts to maximise the opportunities inherent in the process, it reviewed the Broadcast Code to protect local jobs and production. He added that the Federal Government has also started the process of introducing world-class Audience Measurement and Media Monitoring to deliver on the potential one-billion-dollar TV and online advertising revenue market and ensure that the DSO ecosystem delivers value to the economy.
