The pay-TV operator Azam TV will be adding A+E Networks' History channel to its channels line-up from December.
History that has been popular on MultiChoice's DStv satellite pay-TV platform in South Africa since it was added in 2003, will be become available on Azam on channel 505 in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Malawi and Zimbabwe.
"A+E Networks Africa is excited to be adding History to the Azam platform," says Yusuf Nabee, A+E Networks Africa general manager.
" Over the past year History has launched a series of new services including two pop-up channels and H-Vault, a video-on-demand service that offers viewers a broad array of curated collections."
Jacob Joseph, Azam TV CEO, says "We are glad to partner with A+E Networks. We know the pulse of our customers and for sure, History channel will be a game changer".
