You also need to download and install the Drifta app at the Windows Phone Marketplace. DSTV Mobile offers up to 16 exciting channels and you can access it free if you are an active DSTV subscriber. The Drifta costs around 12,250 Naira.
Devices like the Nokia Lumia 920 and Lumia 710 are known to support DSTV Mobile Drifta.
