This year, MultiChoice has been kind of slow on the new channel front with only 3 channels that launched within a space of 6 months and 2 of them serve as repeat channels, Maisha Magic Movies and Moja 9.9.
Besides, the long awaited Mozambique entertainment channel it looks like MultiChoice might be rolling out more channels such as GH One TV, SuperSport Maxìmo Direct 2 and Maisha Magic Plus.
GH One TV is a Ghana-based entertainment TV channel, whose content includes lifestyle, music, fashion, series, children's programs, comedy, and tourism. It is now owned by Excellence In Broadcasting (EIB) Networks. According to a survey conducted by GeoPoll, GH One is the 5th most watched TV station in Ghana.
SuperSport Maxìmo Direct 2 serves as the English version of the current SuperSport Maxìmo channel available on Premium which mashes sports from other channels. This channel would have joined Telemundo as the only station with a duplicate channel in another language.
Maisha Magic Plus serves as Kenyan version of Mzansi Wethu offering series and movies in both English and Swahili. This one would kind of serve as a complimentary to the movie channel and it would be interesting if MultiChoice were to create a seperate feed which not only took from Kenya but Uganda and Tanzania as well.
For now, there's no confirmation from either MultiChoice or the service provider but these 3 channels do raise questions on whether this will be the only thing viewers will be getting for the years to come or whether there's hope for something out of your comfort zone.
