The Saudi Arabian Embassy in Nigeria has initiated discussions to host four television channels on Nigeria’s NigComSat-1R satellite. This development follows a visit by Saudi Arabia’s Head of Media, Mohammed Alsahabi, to the NigComSat offices on Friday.
During the visit, Alsahabi engaged in talks with NigComSat officials, focusing on the potential for collaboration in satellite broadcasting. Abiodun Attah, NigComSat’s Executive Director of Technical Services, received the Saudi delegation, emphasizing the importance of the discussions.
This move highlights the growing cooperation between Nigeria and Saudi Arabia in the digital space. Hosting Saudi television channels on NigComSat-1R can potentially expand media reach while possibly strengthening bilateral ties in satellite technology and broadcasting.
