The board of Walls & Futures (WAFM) have destroyed value big time. Now they want to delist from AQSE. Rebel Mark Jackson wants to sack the board and keep the listing and has called a GM to do just that. We back Mark 100%. He writes:

Many iron ore bosses are wringing their hands at its price halving in three and a half years. But Anton Mauve, managing director of Jim Mellon's Isle of Man-based West African Minerals Corporation (WAFM) is not one of them, even though these woes have sent the AIM-quoted iron ore explorer’s shares down from 32.75p to 5.88p over the past year, for a stock market value of £22.1 million. Following encouraging exploration results at West African’s properties in Cameroon and Sierra Leone, Mauve, a former head of Lonmin Platinum, declares ‘the gloom makes us happy’. But why?
On Sunday Shareprophets rightly criticised West African Minerals (WAFM) for repricing options for its directors. I chatted to Jim Mellon at the weekend and he rather weakly said it was to incentivise the board.
AIM Cesspit listed West African Minerals (WAFM) is one of the public listings from Jim Mellon that he does not boast about. An announcement snuck out late on Friday stinking of boardroom greed might again be something that Jim keeps off his CV.
AIM listed West African Minerals (WAFM) is one of the public listings from Jim Mellon which has to date done very well for its shareholders, however an announcement snuck out late on Friday is not Jim's finest moment.
