It’s a good question, MB. A few weeks back we were told to lay off the attacks on DRC public officials, presumably because the messages were cutting close to the bone. On the (untested) assumption the Uncle Nige would like things to continue that way, my thinking is that we should go hard at Z, plus any other “non-state actors” that warrant attention.@Mr Inappropriate and @Spikerama
I’m after your opinions fella’s. I’ve got a fair bit of media saved on how corrupt the DRC is…. and given Tshisekedi, Lukonde, N’samba have all known about the corruption for over a year now and haven’t done anything about it and the DRC Mining Week is coming up in June, I’m thinking of putting all of it out there ahead of the event highlighting how corrupt the DRC is, any thoughts?
Haven’t seen any sign of the government helping us out and apart from Marius posting a few replies, all I’m reading is now the govt knows how big our project is they want to take back more for themselves
Sick of their corruption on top of Zigin’s but at least from what I read they can’t take it off us

In other words, rather than going after government officials, i’d be inclined at this time to go after those entities that create the opportunity for corruption to exist and initiate corrupt dealings (jeez, that sounded like something from Hollow Men but hopefully you get my drift). I’ll share more via PM.
To the direct question about laying it all on the line leading into mining week, i‘m torn, but probably erring on the side of pointing out the circumstances rather than naming officials. I’d reach out to AVZ directly on that one and ask how upset they’d be if you went ahead…
