He also said that based on these concerns, they have decided to pull off the schedule on ‘I am Jazz’ due to show on TLC 172.


“After careful consideration and wide consultation from various stakeholders, MultiChoice informs its esteemed subscribers that the mini-series, “I am Jazz” has been pulled off the schedule,” he told ITRealms.


Aiyevbomwan also said in a press statement made available to ITRealms on this matter that MultiChoice regularly assess the impact content have on customers and reassured them that their interests are always considered. 


MultiChoice, however, pointed out that its decoders are encrypted with the parental control feature that empowers parents with ultimate control over what their children view.
