The Nigerian Television Authority, NTA, at the moment, is no longer transmitting via Sky Limited, the largest digital satellite television service platform in Europe. A visit to Sky’s website showed that the station had been barred indefinitely from airing on Channel 794. A message on Sky’s website read in part, “794: NTA International; currently temporarily removed from EPG (Electronic Programme Guide).”

A Sky customer service official in the UK said that it had no control over NTA International whose rights are owned by Ben TV. According to Punch, Sources within BEN TV said that it was pulled down two weeks ago.

Sky Limited is a British media and telecommunications conglomerate owned by Comcast and headquartered in London. According to Wikipedia, it has operations in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy and Spain.

Sky is Europe’s largest media company and pay-TV broadcaster by revenue (as of 2018) with 23 million subscribers and more than 31,000 employees as of 2019. The company is primarily involved in satellite television and broadband services.
