Title: MultiChoice Nigeria Fined ₦766 Million for Data Privacy Violations

MultiChoice Nigeria, the popular entertainment and satellite television service provider, has been slammed with a hefty fine of ₦766 million by the Nigeria Data Protection Commission (NDPC) over violations of the country's Data Protection Act. The development marks a major move by Nigerian authorities to uphold data privacy and ensure organizations are held accountable for mishandling personal data.

The NDPC’s investigation revealed that MultiChoice was involved in what it described as "intrusive data processing" practices. These included collecting and handling the personal data of both subscribers and non-subscribers without proper consent. Furthermore, the commission found evidence that MultiChoice engaged in cross-border transfers of Nigerian citizens’ data without complying with legal protocols.

According to the NDPC, these actions were in violation of Section 37 of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution and the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023. The probe, which began in the second quarter of 2024, culminated in July 2025 with the decision to fine the company a total of ₦766,242,500.

Despite being given an opportunity to provide a remedial plan and demonstrate compliance, MultiChoice's response was deemed unsatisfactory. As a result, the NDPC ordered the company to undergo mandatory data protection audits across all its data-collecting channels.

This fine sends a strong message to corporate organizations in Nigeria: data privacy is no longer optional. With increasing awareness around digital rights and consumer protection, regulatory bodies like the NDPC are stepping up enforcement to protect Nigerians from unlawful exploitation of their personal information.

The sanction against MultiChoice also aligns with global trends, where companies are facing higher scrutiny and steeper penalties for violating data privacy regulations.

As Nigeria strengthens its data governance framework, businesses are urged to adopt compliant data management practices or face similar consequences.
