AFCON airing rights too expensive for local channels

Majority of the Kenyan football fans have been disappointed by the fact that the local channels are not airing the AFCON games live.
The reason as to why such games are not being aired was revealed on Viva Africa which is a sports program on Citizen TV. One of the presenters  said that it had already been in talks with Morocco which was supposed to host the AFCON games and an amount of 60 million was to be paid for them to air the games.
The Ebola scare which made Morocco withdraw from hosting the games made it too expensive for the local channels to air the games since once the games were shifted to Guinea the airing rights for the games was inflated twice and an amount of 120M was to be paid by the stations.
``The 120M airing rights were too high for the local channels and the adverts that we air cannot compensate that amount`` ,the presenter stated.
