In a move to make entertainment more flexible and affordable, MultiChoice Uganda has introduced a new set of weekly subscription packages for both DStv and GOtv users under a campaign called ‘Ka Weekie’.
Unveiled on Thursday, the new plans start from as low as UGX 5,000, making it easier for more Ugandans to enjoy their favorite shows without committing to a full month’s payment.
