In a statement personally signed by the former Vice President, Sambo, yesterday, said; “my attention has been drawn to an online story published by Daily Post on a query issued by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission to the Power Distribution Companies. 

Specifically, the report alleged that “l own Kaduna Electric Power Distribution Company of Nigeria (KAEDCO) through a proxy.
