Career
Toyin Subair’s story of fame is still being researched by our team. But we can say with certainty that this Nigerian is one of the few who are passionate about television development.
Over the years, his movement to change the complexity and ideas of television programming has gone through many ups and downs, and has also been subject to harsh scrutiny and criticism from users and television enthusiasts.
He was one of the pioneers in the movement to convert analog television to digital television in Nigeria and West Africa in general.
Toyin Subair started by creating a new television station called HiTV. HiTV is a multi-channel digital satellite television service that aims to raise the bar for pay-per-view set-top boxes.
The idea and construction of this TV channel went smoothly until it suddenly collapsed just a few months later, mainly due to disagreements in the contract with the board of directors and shareholders of the TV channel.
A clause in the contract agreement paved the way for a group of founding shareholders to cut off the company’s source of income and make it impossible for the company to sell its subsidiary, Toyin Subair told Reuters in an interview.
This exercise blocked the company’s equity and investment, and paralyzed its television broadcasting, leaving it in debt. Even then, Toyin Subair said, the management continued to push and shuffle alternatives for eight months to boost its financial performance to gain acceptance and confidence to impress shareholders. But unfortunately, the stock market crashed at that time, leaving the television company in turmoil.
The collapse of HiTv has left viewers questioning Toyin Subair’s ability to run a broadcaster, and criticism has continued to mount after the broadcaster lost the rights to broadcast EPL matches.
But Toyin Subair is not one to be easily criticized or pressured. On the contrary, it was this that motivated him to start another pay TV channel which he named FreeTV.
This new TV station serves at least 5.5 million Lagosians as it is based there and only broadcasts in Lagos. So far, the TV station has been a huge success, receiving a lot of praise for the entrepreneur’s success.
Deeproot’s research shows that HiTv is neither the first nor the third channel that Toyin Subair failed to manage. But then there is PlayTV, one of his failed projects, including others that the media does not know about.
Toyin Subair was smart enough to take advantage of the forced transition from analog to digital broadcasting from speculations about his current TV.
So far, we can say with certainty that Toyin Subair’s long-time dream has come true this time thanks to his perseverance and determination.
