Title: TV rights may deny Nigerians Afcon joy
Post by: KingFemzee on Jan 10, 2013, 01:00 PM
With barely ten days to the commencement of the continent's biggest football showpiece, Nigerians may be deprived of watching their darling Super Eagles on television during the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) as a result of huge Television Rights fees demanded by Caf.
                                                         The competition is slated for South Africa and would commence from January 19th to February 10th, 2013.
The Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON) has cried out about the perceived and alleged conspiracy of Caf agents handling the TV rights for the competition.
                                                          The Chairman of BON Abubakar Jijiwa disclosed in Abuja on Wednesday that they were doing everything humanly possible to ensure the logjam is resolved for Nigerians to watch the Eagles live from South Africa.
