Reconafrica is still drilling for oil near the Okavango Delta. The environmental implications are too risky for nature

Dear Reconafrica, You and I breath the same air and drink the same water like every living organism, so why are you trying to destroy this planet? At the point, when you start drilling for oil near the Okavango Delta, normal people like me, change their lives to understand, why on heavens earth we are so desperate to drill for oil near the most important biodiversity hotspot in the Sub Sahar region? Maybe the same reason why the oil industry pays $1bn to manipulate the public and calm us on the way to a global overheating. Its called lobbying budgets, i.e. distortion of truth like Simon Nix did it so well with the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Don't expect the World to accept corrupt process, especially not, when the Okavango Delta is under threat. Have you searched the Internet? The entire Internet is full of stories about your dodgy dealings around many other failed pump and dump stock stories. This one seem to work out for you, considering the share price. Listen up @reconafrica, it is very simple, the World does not want oil from the Okavango Delta. I won’t fill up my car anymore not knowing where the oil came from. Even if you find it oil and try to hide it, into the intransparent supply chains, the resistance will be very high. You don’t understand obviously that normal people do care about the potential death of 1 million indigenous people and the most important hotspot in the this key water delta with elephants, wild dogs, many birds, hippos etc. Maybe you should ask the friends of your children what they think about your business? We are not living in the 60th anymore. It is time of solar. Readjust to a new reality please! There are more issues: The fact that a astonishing amount of positive news flow on your stock is driven by oilprice.com. It is remarkable when reading when reading the disclaimer. The owner (?) and founder of Oilprice.com disclosed in at the bottom of its website, his ownership in Reconafrica. Wherever we look, we find conflict of interests. On reddit it seems, you control most of the accounts talking positively about your share price potential. Why are systems in place to protect the Okavango Delta from senseless drilling, when we are not using them? Where are you now UN, when we need you? We can rely on you, right? When a fine publication of trust and authority reveals all the ugly truth how the drilling company obtained the license for the operation during the Covid time, how the indigenous people where sidelined in the sign off processes, how the environmental certificates were prepared from corrupt paid off officials, etc. I am not surprised that the Reconafrica scandal has happened, I am surprised that the you are still drilling. After the attached reporting, I would have expected an injunction from wherever to stop the nonsense and get the Canadian flagged drillers out of this beautiful country. The alternatives are: clean energy, carbon credits with the peat in the delta (the World pays c. $50-100m a year because of carbon sequestration), eco-tourism and most importantly cookie cutter sustainable agriculture concepts empowering the indigenous people. With the problem of C02 the strategic value of indigenous people and the delta to us is completely changed. They should be our closest allies now and work in preserving the C02 observing nature, like peat in the delta. Dear @reconafrica, if you have nothing to hide, I invite you to present your case on NOAH Digital Video. Lets do an interview. You want to talk about fair treatment for The Namibian people? Ever country should be allowed to get their oil out? Something like country sovereignty? So lets run some numbers, I am a banker and love to see who gets what in your rosy business plans. Thank you National Geographic to be the rock in my positive perception of human ethic, or whatever is left of it. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/animals/article/oil-exploration-company-in-okavango-wilderness-misled-investors-sec-complaint-says We know of it, hence we have to do something! Name me a price ReconAfrica, we want to protect our delta and its people. Please leave and go to your next project, this time far away from the animals and people please. We want to see the local villages flourish and see the elephants swim in many years to come. With no harm, Marco Rodzynek P.S. NOAH raised the last financing round for Wedonthavetime to protect the nature. The Okavango is a perfect place to start our work. I am replaceable, you know what I mean. Representation of Good will always be there, thanks to Ingmar and his team. We won't get manipulated by social media trolls.
