US-based Ghanaian media personality and comedienne Afia Schwarzenegger has expressed her frustration over the high DSTV monthly subscription fees being charged in the country.

In a TikTok video, the former radio presenter questioned why the Sub-Saharan African direct broadcast satellite service company was charging Ghanaians exorbitant prices despite only repeating old movies.

An angry Afia Schwarzenegger slammed DSTV Ghana officials for not reducing their monthly subscription fees, despite providing services that she deemed substandard.

She said:

"Who do DSTV think they are? You are in Ghana repeating movies, showing old movies, and charging us outrageous prices. What is wrong with all of you at DSTV? Who is controlling what over there? When was the last time you showed 2025 movies?"

The comedienne noted that she and many Ghanaians would turn their attention to the broadcast satellite service company after it lowered its subscription fees.

Afia Schwarzenegger complains about high data costs

Afia Schwarzenegger's complaints about the high DSTV monthly subscription fees come days after she criticised Samuel Nartey George, over the high cost of internet data in the country.

She blasted the Ningo-Prampram constituency MP for failing to address the issue as the minister, despite being very vocal about it during the previous Akufo-Addo-led NPP administration.

Afia Schwarzenegger recounted the challenges she faced with regard to purchasing internet data for her children and the multiple businesses she owned in Ghana.

She questioned why Sam George criticised the previous Communications Minister, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful, over high data prices, even though he knew she had no power to resolve the issue.

The controversial media personality also questioned why President Mahama continued to retain Sam George in his current position.
