This was orchestrated by the avalanche of enquiries on the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) by the media on allegations of telephone “tracking” and “leakage” made against the Commission by some individuals and groups in the social and alternative Media.
This was contained in a statement signed by the Director, Public Affairs, Reuben Mouka. From the statement, the Commission debunked the allegations in its entirety.
He revealed that by the provisions of the Nigerian Communication Act (NCA) 2003 and other extant Laws of the Federation, the Commission does not and cannot “track” nor “leak” telephone conversations of anyone.
The statement further stated that the Commission has reported the allegations, which it took seriously, to relevant security agencies for proper investigation and necessary action.
The Commission however stressed its commitment to discharge its responsibilities to the Nigerian people in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; the NCA 2003; and other extant Laws of the Federation; and global best practices.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the Commission denies these allegations and advises the public to disregard them” The statement noted.
