CHAPTER ONE
 Consumption is basic to human existence, the human nature is usually involved in everyday activity that stem from manufacturing buying and consumption. The consumer also must be aware of the existence of a product before they though of buying and testing the production.
Therefore, the manufacture utilizes different options to make the consumer aware of the existence of his products and determine how much product can serve the purpose of consumers.
Such options stem from the billboards, radio and posters. It does not necessarily mean that the only use of television is for advertising purposes.
According to Adibe and Akunna (1994) advertising ensures that men and women have choice seal select in other hand television  advertising is a service marketing concept, that has no profit motive.
The American marketing association defines services as activities, benefits or satisfaction that are offered for sale or are provided in connection with the sales of goods, the services described in the second half of the definition above are included in the sales records to the customers viz per sales services when a customer buys a service in the services marketing, he buys the time, knowledge, skills or resources of someone who is the provide of the service.
When you talk of the effect of television advertising on consumers choice of electronic product in Owerri metropolis, that profit move include in the marketing concept could be ignored totally because both federal and state owned television stations in this country do not make profit compared with their counter parts overseas.
The equipment designs to help television houses and researchers to know the number of viewers, a channel records every day has since been in use  in the United State of America. The number of television license which is renewed annually, such things as television and radio license do not exist here in Nigeria and may not exist on the near future. This is why the television house depends on the government (i.e. Federal or State depending on ownership) for subventions to sustain it. Otherwise it generates revenue from advertisement and sponsored programmes.
Television is the latest medium of communication and has begun to be extensively used for advertisement. It uses audiovisual appeals to contact consumers of general utility products unlike radio advertising may take the form of short commercial as well as sponsored programmes combining entertainment with publicity. This medium is available in our country but the only price we pay is the cost of our television sets period.
Advertising has its roots in the Latin words “adventure” which means to turn the mind towards the aim of every advertising message is to positively affect the behaviour and attitude of the target market.
Advertising is one of the communications and promotional employed by a marketing oriented establishment to reach its market.
According to Condit, Boche and Jurity (1980:335) advertising is a non personal form of promotion and involves transmitting standard message to large number of intended receivers.
The first television in Nigerian was opened in 1959, by the western region, it was know as a Western Nigerian Television (WNTV).
Nigeria establishes it own television station in 1962 under the name Nigerian television authority (NTA) and ultra high frequency (UHF).
Like in Owerri metropolis, the federal and state owned television station under the names, Nigerian television authority (NTA) Owerri) and Imo Broadcasting co-operation (IBC).
