Telecommunications in Nigeria include radio, television, fixed and mobile telephones, and the Internet. ==Radio and television== Radio stations: * network of federal government-controlled national, regional, and state radio stations; roughly 40 state government-owned radio stations typically carry their own programs except for news broadcasts; about 20 private radio stations; transmissions of international broadcasters are available (2007);〔("Communications: Nigeria" ), ''World Factbook'', U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, 11 February 2014. Retrieved 21 February 2014.〕 * 83 AM, 36 FM, and 11 shortwave stations (2001).〔("Communications: Nigeria" ), ''World Factbook'', U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, 31 May 2007. Retrieved 12 June 2007 via the Internet Archive.〕 Radios: 23.5 million (1997). Television stations: nearly 70 federal government-controlled national and regional TV stations; all 36 states operate TV stations; several private TV stations operational; cable and satellite TV subscription services are available (2007).〔 Television sets: 56.9 million (2007). Nigeria's media scene is one of the most vibrant in Africa. Because newspapers and television are relatively expensive and literacy levels low, radio remains the most important medium of mass communication and information. International broadcasters, including the BBC, are popular. TV viewing is concentrated in urban areas.〔("Nigeria Profile" ), ''BBC News'', 12 September 2013.〕〔 The largest broadcasting companies are the government-owned Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN) and the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA).〔http://www.nta.com.ng/ 〕 The NTA has two television services. One is NTA 1, which is distributed among NTA's six television zones. The other is NTA 2, which is distributed nationwide and is funded mostly by advertising. NITEL owns a majority of the transmitters that broadcast FRCN and NTA programming. Each state also has a broadcasting company that broadcasts one or two locally operated terrestrial stations.〔 This means that there are about 50 government owned, but partly independent television stations. Private players in the Nigerian television scene include: Silverbird Television (STV),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Silverbird Television )〕 Africa Independent Television (AIT), Channels Television, Superscreen Television, and several others. Most of their programming is aimed for the African and global markets and is broadcast globally from Lagos, Abuja, Obosi and Port Harcourt centers with affiliated TV stations in several African countries. African Independent Television (AIT) is a high profile satellite television station broadcasting globally from its Lagos and Abuja centers. Other direct satellite television stations with international reach operating in Nigeria are Murhi International Television, ON Television, Galaxy TV, TV Continental, etc. all in Lagos.〔 There is general access to cable television〔 like DSTV, a South African cable television station, broadcast over satellite. HiTV,〔http://www.hitv.com.ng/ 〕 DaarSat,〔 StarTimes and Infinity TV〔http://www.infinitytv.tv/ 〕 are other examples of cable TV in Nigeria. M-Net ceased operations in December 2011, but had offices in most Nigerian cities, and was watched by a large number of people. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Telecommunications in Nigeria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
