Count provided by faceless following about right (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rectify

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'right' is the definition.
(I know that right can be written as rectify)

'count provided by faceless following about' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'provided' could be 'if' (eg 'provided it's sunny' means 'if it's sunny') and 'if' is present in the answer.
'about' could be 're' ('re' means regarding or about) and 're' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rectify that I've seen before include "Make correct, put right" , "Correct - repair" , "change current form" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
