Nigerian Television Authority have branches in the following cities in
Nigeria but my main focus is on Enugu’s station Nigerian Television
Authority ( NTA).
The Nigerian Television Authority is the largest
television network in Africa as well as one of the oldest and most
accomplished indigenous broadcast outfits in Nigeria. Nigerian
Television Authority has over the years distinguished itself as a force
in the field of television broadcasting globally. It is equally
programmes has received numerous awards at international competitions
and festivals which include the following..
1. Ist prize the drama category at the URTNA competitions in Algiers, Senegal etc with cock crow at dawn moment of truth.etc
2. Ist prize for drama in us prized pieces festival with things fall apart.
3. Ist prize in documenting category with a labour’s honour lost at the 1988.
TAM-TAM international video competition in Italy among other laurels.
The
authority is equipped with a new state of the are digital facilities
which has additionally enhance it’s competition advantage as the major
player in the broadcast industry worldwide.
Here in conclusion what am trying to explain is that NTA is a very large station that informs, educate and entertain people.
1.2 Statement of Research Problem
The
success of Nigerian Television Authority depends on how it places men
and women in it’s programmes, commercial news and it’s broadcast.
Inspite
of the progress made over the last 25 years, NTA still churns out
female stereotype that limit the power of women in the society.
In
many countries, women are strongly presented in news room but media is
still very much male dominated when the top positions are examined it is
very difficult to find a man working in a news room, it is mostly
female that work in a news room.
Another problem identified in this
course of research is that women being marginalized in the news both in
the context of the jobs they do and in the opportunity they have to make
their way in the unions that represent them .battles for equality are
being taught in every part of the country and this has really bring
fight and problem in our country today ,men has really discriminate
women from what they want ,by not allowing them to get exact work they
want, men believe that men are not equal with them but is not suppose to
be so because both male and female are equal because what a man can do a
woman can do it better. It takes argument, debate, training and
practical commitment to confront discrimination.
What this research is trying to explain or let us know is that men and women are equal no matter what.
