The Commission in a statement on Tuesday says it has become necessary to clarify the telecoms regulators’ position to dispel insinuations that it might be responsible for the leakage of purported audio involving the Labour Party Presidential candidate Peter Obi and Bishop Oyedepo of the Living faith church.
