“In line with a recent strategic review, we have therefore decided to make these changes, while also including an exciting range of entertainment channels; Maisha Magic Bongo, Vuzu and M-Net Family and opened up BBC Brit, CBeebies, BBC Lifestyle and a localized BET channel from DStv Premium to Compact Plus and Compact packages to give more subscribers a broader variety of entertainment programming to enjoy in time for the holiday season”.

“In addition, viewers on these packages will celebrate their holiday break with the first African pop-up children’s channel, Hoolee, from Turner Broadcasting which will run from December 1 to January 31″.
