Ping!

Yes, it's marked as a buy on ADVFN but I would have thought the price would have been a shade higher.

Today is day 14 of the drilling that spudded on 20th January so we should have an RNS this week if all is going to plan, maybe in a couple of days.

From RNS:

'BON-18 is a redrill of the legacy production well BON-2, which has damaged casing. This is a deeper well to approximately 1,800 feet which is expected to take two weeks to drill on current pre-drill forecasting. The primary objectives are two zones from which good legacy production was achieved.

On completion of BON-18 drilling operations and the tie in of new production the NABI drilling rig moves on to the exploratory well BON-19. This BON-19 well will be the proof of concept for the very shallow BON-14 ("Saffron") trend. The Company anticipates that between 5 and 7 shallow development wells will be drilled following this trend such that upon completion of this phase of drilling operations in the Bonasse field between 200 and 300 bopd of new production will be added through existing facilities and oil sales arrangements.'

Extremely quiet here!

I didn't know IG paid interest on uninvested cash, thanks for the info.

The chart looks very reassuring.

Off hand I first bought here in 2013 or 2014, or both. They have a good team who ensure the dividends keep pace with the world. Good to see this RNS, next one please!

Some old photos of Jeremy with the main man!

EME had news today and are up over 150% on the day so expect fireworks here when the RNS lands.

I'm not sure how much of the churn is left but once it's gone, it's gone. And Boom!

Nomadme. Yes, it appears there is no change which is good for us as he should be up to speed. I wonder if Malcy knew this yesterday when indicated news could be within days, I thought that was interesting.

Recent Cabinet Reshuffle in Cameroon

President Paul Biya has announced a cabinet reshuffle, marking a significant political event in Cameroon. This reshuffle comes after a long period of anticipation, as it is the first major change in government since 2019.

Key Details of the Reshuffle

Announcement Date: The reshuffle was officially announced on January 29, 2026.

Context: This change follows Biya's State of the Nation address on December 31, 2025, where he indicated a need for a new government to address pressing national issues.

Public Reaction: The announcement has generated mixed feelings among citizens. Many are hopeful for new leadership that can tackle ongoing challenges such as high unemployment, economic difficulties, and security issues in various regions.

Expectations from the New Cabinet

Focus on Youth and Women: There is a strong public demand for the inclusion of younger leaders and women in the new cabinet, reflecting a desire for fresh perspectives and innovative governance.

Addressing National Issues: The new government is expected to prioritize economic reforms and improve living conditions for citizens, particularly in light of the high cost of living and public service inefficiencies.

Skepticism: Despite the hope for change, there is skepticism regarding whether the reshuffle will lead to meaningful improvements or simply reinforce the existing political status quo.

This cabinet reshuffle is seen as a critical moment for Cameroon, as the nation looks for effective leadership to navigate its current challenges.

Same here Pepsi3, I have so many idiots filtered as they engage with trolls and loonies. It makes reading much better, either that of quitting LSE as it's like a kid's playground.

Malcy's blog said it could be any day and it appears the shuffle has taken place. Google this:

Cameroon: President Paul Biya reshuffles cabinet

A raise was inevitable given the delay in the process in Cameroon but a modest discount shows that shareholders are happy to hang in there and top up the coffers when needed.

As Jeremy Asher says in the statement there is optimism that things are moving slowly but inexorably forward, indeed maybe even ‘in days’…

The churn should soon be over and then it will be interesting as the sp may keep rising.

Can people not reply to idiots, I filter them so it appears you talk to yourselves and most of the posts are like that. The other board is now worthless due to derampers and this one is heading that way. You reply, they win.

Don't worry about the delay we have had as the President is rejigging the constitution before finalising cabinet reshuffle. This is in the public domain so please do not accuse me of ramping.

Once that is done it seems we get the green light for GO...

Good luck all, even the whingers.

It does appear the cabinet reshuffle is delayed due to plans to amend the Constitution and restore the vice presidency.

We will wait and see.

New Year's Resolution. 'Stop the tittle tattle and sniping'. Thanks to all participants.

With things as they are I'd say we are set fair for a decent run. Of course, there are no guarantees but without risk, no reward.
