NIGERIAN BROADCASTING GROUP UNABLE TO AFFORD AFRICA CUP SOCCER TV BROADCAST RIGHTS

January 11th 2008 02:33

Nigerian football fans may not be able to watch their team, the Super Eagles on television when the 2008 African Cup of Nations starts in two weeks ' time in Ghana, according to the Nigerian news business directory.
Afrique en ligne reports that the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria says it cannot afford to buy the rights to the tournament since the company that owns the rights is demanding EUR3 million (A$5 million.)
The Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria says it can only offer EUR1.25 million ($2 million) for the rights. And this was not acceptable to the rights owners.

More than 30 percent of Africa's TV audience for football is in Nigeria.
