And now we turn to Danadav Investments, yet another short lived and mysterious company which actively traded shares with two David Lenigas concerns and then just expired. Who owned Danadav? Perhaps Jabba might explain what on earth went on here.

The last time I got a "late night" text from David Bick, the thirsty PR man for share ramper David Lenigas, the Guv'nor warned me not to go to his Manor in E13 or else.... But as Bick prepares to see his client Jabba The Hutt exposed on Saturday at UK Investor show and with his client now reduced to tweting out blatant lies that just make him look a pathetic wretch, I have received another bizzare late night text.

NEX-lobster pot listed Afriag (AFRI) slipped out a 4.45pm placing announcement last night – a no-one-is-watching o’clock special, raising enough to keep the lights on but not much more. But there seems to have been a spot of confusion over which company was issuing the RNS. Was it Afriag or fellow David Lenigas company Doriemus (DOR) – also of the NEX province?

Modesty is not normally a word one associates with Jabba The Hutt. Words like ramper, promoter, exaggerating, bullshit, overpaid, greedy are ones that spring to mind. And modesty is something that is not evident at all as Big Dave Lenigas turns his hand to blogging.

I’d like to remind certain people who’ve attacked the mercurial David Lenigas, in recent weeks, that this is the man who a couple of months ago was being praised by the vast majority for making them collectively, hundreds of thousands, if not millions of pounds. (Where are they all now David?) Fast forward to the present day and Mr Lenigas is now being demonised on financial web sites, bulletin boards, comments sections & twitter.

David Lenigas popped by earlier in the week for a chat on a number of matters. As ever the great man had a lot to say on a range of issues. But a few points stick in the mind.

Fat Aussie share ramper Jabba The Hutt is still new media obsessed and is apparently starting a series on his new blog on twitter, trolls and how the media are all such bad guys while Big Dave is left to carry the sword of truth and wield the shield of justice. His first article is a classic in self delusion and well, er...lies.

You would have thought that Jabba The Hutt would be too busy looking after his portfolio of trainwreck companies to send out a lawyers letter. But oh no, Big Dave has been wasting someone's cash with a nasty missive from his bully boy briefs at Kerman & Co to the well regarded City firm SP Angel.

The totally unexplained change of year end at David Lenigas bitcoin play Vinanz (BTC) announced after hours yesterday is yet another massive red flag as discussed in bearcast. At 17.5p a £45 million valuation is bonkers. It is not just me saying this, over to AI.Published 10 February 2016, 07:43
Hat Tip to reader "Inspector" for this point on the car crash IPO of the year 2015 Lenigas Cuba (CUBA) and its latest (failed) attempt to ramp the share price. On 9th February, Jabba The Hutt published the following update on his company's investment in Petro Australis:

You see a share price falling despite your ramping what do you do if you are Jabba The Hutt, David Lenigas, the unnacceptable face of capitalism? You open up your laptop on your 100 foot yacht in the Monaco tax haven and tweet out some lies. David Lenigas you are a liar. I invite you to sue me for libel for calling you a liar. You will not because here is (more) slam dunk proof that you are a liar. Here are some lies you told about LGO Energy (LGO) - target price 0p - with the past 24 hours.

The tobacco factory at Pietermaritsburg operated by CK Tobacco was at the hear of the Lonrho empire of David Lenigas which found itself emeshed in tobacco smuggling activities some years ago. Ownership of the site passed from Delta Tobacco to CK Tobacco but control remained with Afriag SA principal Yusuf Kajee who in 2011 applied for a new license for his operation from the South African Revenue Service, SARS. An explosive letter that has fallen into my possession shows why that application was refused.

Yesterday I pointed out the rapacious greed of David Lenigas and Richard Poulden in allotting themselves shares in Vinanz (BTC) at 0.25p two weeks before mug punters, roped in by salesmen charging 8% commission, paid 3p ahead of the Aquis IPO. Unable to deal with the awkward facts, Lenigas took to twitter yesterday to tell lies, with Poulden loyally retweeting every smear his master posted.Published 15 December 2015, 09:03
The birth of AfriAg (AFRI) saw the hand of Jabba The Hutt's old mucker Paul de Robillard present, almost right from the start. Lenigas and Mr de Robillard appear to have worked together on this AfriAG (SA/plc/UK/whatever) venture almost right from the beginning.

In its Admission Document to ISDX, Lenigas Cuba (CUBA) states that it has acquired 40 shares in TravelWelcome Limited which represents 40% of the issued share capital of that UK incorporated entity. Being a Companies House anorak, any excuse to poke around is taken with both hands and what we find is very odd, for it appears that CUBA has been rather more active than that statement gives credit for. Here is what I found – perhaps Big Dave Lenigas would care to explain what has been going on?

Yesterday was a momentous day for AIM as we saw David Lenigas depart his role at Leni Gas and Oil (LENI). Lenigas stepped aside from his eponymous company and gave way to a new number of board members. He leaves behind his legacy if only in name and maybe salaries will rise, but should we be sad or is this a great revelation?

The most read articles last week are the tips of the year by far. Excluding them, The View From The Montana Log Cabin As the Gold Correction Grinds Slowly On by Nigel Somerville is the most read non-Tom article, at number 1 or number 3 including Bearcasts or 21 if one includes our share tips of the year.

I hope that his PR man does not beat me up for saying this but David Lenigas appears to have made millions of pounds from selling shares in LGO Energy (LGO) – despite constantly tweeting how cheap the shares were – and appears not to have notified AIM of those share sales.
