Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Multichoice is to open two new TV channels Maningue Magic and Kwenda Magic \u2013 for audiences in Mozambique and Angola respectively.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s part of the pay-TV platform\u2019s long-standing regional strategy that combines local content acquisition, local production, and the development of local content through international production partnerships.<\/p>\n

The new Portuguese-language channels will show dramas, telenovelas, local versions of hit reality shows, hilarious comedies, dubbed international content and homegrown music on DStv and GOtv platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese channel launches are an exciting milestone for MultiChoice, and our hyperlocal strategy,\u201d says Joao Ribeiro, Channel Head for both Kwenda Magic and Maningue Magic. \u201cMultiChoice\u2019s mission is to showcase Africa\u2019s diverse, rich culture through our continent\u2019s deep storytelling history. To have two new 24-hour channels in local languages, featuring locally produced content, provides an incredibly powerful platform to do this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the past 18 months, MultiChoice has grown its local content offering through several channel launches including Pearl Magic Prime, Akwaaba Magic and Abol TV in Uganda, Ghana, and Ethiopia, as well as hit international co-productions like Reyka and ongoing local productions like the ever-popular Big Brother Naija.<\/p>\n

\u201cUntil now, independent producers had few outlets for their work and had to act on many levels, struggling to get budgets, and to have their content shown,\u201d adds Ribeiro. \u201cWith our channels requiring content 24 hours a day, we can now invite local producers to pitch ideas, to commission and develop projects, and to pay fair, market-related rates for work.\u201d<\/p>\n
