Many Nigerians desiring to watch the 2018 Russia FIFA World cup matches live without owning Cable or Pay TV decoders found it extremely hard. Most terrestrial TV stations were not crystal sharp neither did many have the funds to buy exorbitant petrol for their power generating sets.
But wait a minute!
Nigerians have Android phones and tablets. Laptops are also there!

Caring government, you might add.
