Description

The U.S. Department of State?s Bureau of Counterterrorism (CT) announces a Request for Applications from organizations interested in providing Hausa-language TV content via free-to-air satellite ? with a footprint to cover northern Nigeria. CT invites organizations to submit applications outlining a project concept and capacity to develop and manage a free-to-air Hausa-language satellite TV channel aimed at youth residing in northern Nigeria.
