INTRODUCTION
1.0 BACKGROUND OF
THE STUDY
Though
both private and government owned television are established for the purposes
of dissemination of information to their guidance, yet they are
confronted with some problems.
These
problems range from their ownership to management, which no doubt have
affected both polices and operations, finance case studies.
Both
of the media houses utilize electronic magnetic waves in reading divisive
audience but by comparative analysis, the factors of ownership and media policy
differ them in terms of styles, objectives, operations etc.
In this circumstance, comparative analysis of the
researcher is based on case studies of both minaj television Obosi, a
private television and that of NTA Channel 12 Owerri a government owned
television house.
We shall look at the history of Television stations in Nigeria and
specifically the problems facing the two.
Television was this introduced by the defunct Western Region Government in
1959, which was then known as Western Nigeria Broadcasting the Federal
Government.
At
present Nigeria has well over 30 Television stations. The MINAJ
Television was established in 1994 while NTA Owerri was established
2003, According to the book mass media purpose, principles and practices
written by BEN AGBO AND NKEM FAB-UKOZOR, say that the coverage of Television is
limited to the urban centers which in effect indicate that the audience for
television come from the towns.
There
is evidence in this paper that television broadcasting in Nigeria was not
people- oriented but a policy toll and propaganda but at present, some
fairness, balance can be observed in some especially the privately owned
ones.

RESEARCH PROBLEM

are of immense importance to the society minding the roles which they
play accordingly information, education and entertainment.

negatively,

1.3 SIGNIFICANCE
OF THE STUDY

study will help us determine the factors which constitute problems to
both private and government television broadcasting stations and also to
know the extent with which the problems have reached and the study
will also suggest solutions to the problems.
As a result of the fact that the organization might not have time
and also the resources both manpower and other wise to research into this
topic, this very work would therefore, present a comprehensive and factual
information or knowledge of their operations in the state. By acknowledging
the facts put up more efforts to improve or automatically correcting the
problems existing in the station
On the other hand, as a station owned and finance by the government and
private, a knowledge of the station’s problems is a step towards solving it.
The public in general will benefit from the
findings of this research and the solutions if implemented by the management of
government and private television station, their
conditions and level of service will improve and the public will
have cause to enjoy and identify with the station the more especially
