Alright heres a question for everyone, since we've all had a whinge at some point about delays and Nige's misunderstanding of how to use the word 'imminent' correctly in a sentence.
When has Nige/AVZ ever actually let us down and not delivered on what they've promised? All be it delivered late or delayed but still they have done what they said they would, any examples are appreciated.
(I wasn't around for the Klaus and easter egg times so I guess I'm asking more so since those times)
Maybe but they've seemingly fiddled around in the office for two years making bold proclamations about time frames during covid as the Chinese formulated a plan to scoop up as much as of the deposit as possible in the background.
Bit of a let down I'd say and now we seem to be paying the price. Let's hope all this is part of what they've been working on and they've not simply been blind sided and now playing catch up.
Between Africa time and Nigel time it's all been taking a bit too much time and now this crap.
Champagne on ice for Christmas 5 months ago only to land here at the precipice of popping the cork is pretty disappointing to say the least imo.
But yes what choice to we have but to remain optimistic and see how it plays out, maybe one day things could even go a bit smoothly for a change.
So far it's been an obstacle at every turn and now it's fairly clear to see that it is mainly to do with the ongoing internal power struggle and corruption that exists within the DRC government.
Seemingly we couldn't have had much worse luck, how much of it is to do with management or whether they've actually been doing an exceptional job under the circumstances who knows? Matter of perspective I guess.
One thing is for sure, we need to get on with it and not be trapped in suspension for any longer than is strictly necessary.
If it drags on for months I am going to be pissed and seriously considering if this investment is worthwhile.
