Both of the media houses utilize electronic magnetic waves in reading  divisive audience but by comparative analysis, the factors of ownership and media policy differ them in  terms of styles, objectives, operations etc.

In  this circumstance, comparative analysis of the researcher is based on  case studies of both minaj television Obosi, a private television and that of NTA Channel 12 Owerri a government owned television house.

We  shall look at the history of Television stations in Nigeria and specifically the problems facing the  two.

Television was this introduced by the defunct Western Region Government in 1959, which was then known as Western Nigeria Broadcasting the Federal Government.

At present Nigeria has well over 30 Television stations.  The MINAJ Television was established in 1994 while  NTA Owerri  was established 2003, According to the book mass media purpose, principles and practices  written by BEN AGBO AND NKEM FAB-UKOZOR, say that the coverage of Television is limited to the urban centers which in effect indicate that the audience for television come from the towns.

There is evidence in this paper that television broadcasting in Nigeria was not people-  oriented but a policy toll and propaganda but at present, some fairness, balance can be observed  in some especially the privately owned ones.

Some of my major handicap were financed, Time and energy and other reasons, that make in impossible to cover other television stations finance is a serious constraints  to me. I could not get to certain areas to sample opinions.  Irrespective of all this, I still manage to pick certain individuals from these areas who are living in the state capitals.  This was purportedly done to enable me obtain a balance and a reliable opinions from all the zones in the state.

Besides Time and energy could not allow me the opportunity to visit some of the department in government and private owned Television station at least to get their views and ideas on the research topic.  As a result of lack of time were unable to exhaust my questionnaire from my respondent.

But all said and done, it was not an easy task.
