I have always expressed my views on erhc's non-reporting status. Strategic silence about potential deal making is fine, but it does not exempt a public company from filing financials, insider trades or pertinent ownership positions. I challenged you to provide 1 example where this has ever been the case but you can't. Same goes for your asinine gag order excuses. The SEC even issued explicit instructions on how companies should handle confidential information when filing.
Regarding your Offor rumor, whether you called or texted, why keep promoting the same false rumor after I reported the truth?
Undaunted, there you go again, lying about my "endless doomsday predictions about ERHC’s bankruptcy". How many times have I mentioned erhc going bankrupt? When was the last time I made such a statement? I'm sure you won't provide answers to those questions because they would expose you once again.
Speculation is one thing. But promoting false rumors in search of a Game Stop like short squeeze when you can't even prove any erhe shares are held short is something else. It is deceitful and despicable. Now, after your humiliating and shameful prediction of block 4 drilling results and erhe dividend in March 2025, you squirmed into the open ended "backstop" that might happen years from now, maybe decades. You are a joke.

SSC, it’s always entertaining how you recycle the same accusations and try to spin your obsession with me into some kind of public service. Let’s break this down piece by piece, so even your tunnel vision might catch some light.
1. "Strategic Silence" vs SEC Disclosure Rules
Yes, U.S. companies are obligated to follow SEC disclosure rules—nobody disputes that. But here’s the nuance you keep ignoring: when companies operate internationally, especially in sensitive industries like oil and gas, confidentiality often becomes a necessity. If ERHC is truly navigating deals involving Shell, Total, or other major players, withholding public announcements until the right time could be a strategic decision, not a violation of regulations. You may scoff, but you’ve never once addressed why you believe this couldn’t be the case, beyond parroting "7 years of silence."
2. "Any Day Now" and Speculation
The phrase "any day now" doesn’t mean "tomorrow." It means any point in the future—perhaps near, perhaps far. But here’s what you always fail to grasp: speculation is not the same as a guarantee. I’ve always been clear that my posts are based on logical deductions and publicly available information. If you want to call me a liar for speculating, then by your own standard, your endless doomsday predictions about ERHC’s bankruptcy would also make you a liar.
3. The Offor Chairman "Rumor"
Your favorite talking point. Let me set the record straight again: the initial information came from Sunny, a respected figure in the industry, at a women’s oil conference. I shared it because I trusted the source. When you claim I called you a liar, I challenge you—where’s the link to that post? Provide evidence of me calling you a liar. And yes, I reached out to ERHC—not by phone, as you did, but via text. So your narrative about me refusing to seek the truth is, unsurprisingly, another exaggeration. Sunny’s passing only underscores how you’ve twisted this entire situation into another baseless attack.
4. Your Crusade Against Speculation
You claim your goal is to prevent me from profiting through misinformation. Let’s be real: your goal has always been to discredit me personally. If you were truly here for the shareholders, why not focus on providing value instead of tearing down others? You ridicule ideas like SPVs, kaboom rallies, and dividends in 2025, but let’s not forget that you’ve been dead wrong about ERHC’s potential before. If you’re so confident, why spend so much energy trying to prove me wrong? Methinks the short seller doth protest too much.
5. Living Rent-Free in My Head?
You wish. If anything, your relentless obsession with me is proof of the opposite. My posts are about analyzing and speculating on ERHC’s potential—yours are about me. Who’s really living in whose head here?
---
"The Bottom Line"
SSC, your attacks are as stale as your repetitive narratives. You’ve spent years trying to convince others that ERHC is worthless, yet here you are, still obsessing over every detail of a company you claim to care nothing about. If you truly had nothing to lose, you wouldn’t be so desperate to control the conversation. But here’s the reality: you can’t control it, and you certainly can’t control me.
So keep posting, keep projecting, and keep misrepresenting the facts. At the end of the day, the truth will emerge, and no amount of your posturing will change that.

Another long-winded, greed and hubris filled diatribe focused on me by erhc's liar in chief dickran. Guess who is living in his/her head lmao.
Stripping away some of your double talk, 1) "strategic silence" for publicly traded U.S. companies does not include violating SEC disclosure regulations for more than 7 years. And please don't spew out the asinine gag order excuses for the thousandth time, 2) triple zero, non-reporting companies don't go to dollars/share "any day now" as you so frequently and incorrectly predicted for years, 3) I don't care whether erhc does a deal(s) or not; my goal here is to make sure people like you don't profit by spreading misinformation like African Queens, spv, epic short squeezes, kaboom rallies, drilling results and dividends in March 2025, Offor is new chairman, etc., etc., etc.
By the way, when I made the effort and reported the truth about your false Offor rumor, all it took was a simple phone call by you to confirm or disprove it. Instead you chose to call me a liar while continuing to promote your own self-serving lie, complete with asinine claims of how this proved Offor owned more than half or even all the erhe shares. Just a simple phone call for the truth, but that was not what you were after.

Let’s Address the SSC Cycle of Misinformation
Ah, SSC, it’s always fascinating how you manage to twist reality into your own personal soap opera. Let’s break down your latest tirade and highlight the irony of your self-proclaimed role as "truth-teller."
1. The Offor Chairman "Saga":
You love spinning the narrative that I continued promoting the idea of Offor as chairman after your "heroic" phone call to ERHC. But as I’ve clarified multiple times (and for those new here), the original information came directly from Sunny at the women’s oil conference—someone highly regarded in the industry. Sunny tragically passed away, and while the information turned out to be incorrect, I didn’t "lie" by repeating what was conveyed to me at the time. When it became clear the information was wrong, I updated my stance, as any reasonable person would. What’s truly bizarre is your obsession with clinging to this as if it’s the linchpin of your argument.
2. Your Definition of Speculation:
You claim my speculations are illogical, but isn’t it ironic that someone who spends years obsessively attacking a single stock and its largest shareholder can call anything "illogical"? Let’s look at the bigger picture: ERHC operates in one of the most resource-rich regions in the world, with significant geopolitical and corporate players involved. Speculating on potential deals, partnerships, or outcomes is entirely rational given the publicly available information and patterns in the industry. What’s truly irrational is spending years of your life trying to convince others that ERHC is worthless while simultaneously obsessing over its every move.
3. The Share Price Argument:
Yes, the share price is low—nobody denies that. But here’s the kicker: the oil and gas industry often sees long-term plays where value materializes only after years of groundwork. Shell, Total, and other major players didn’t become giants overnight, and neither will ERHC. The fact that you harp on the share price as your ultimate "gotcha" shows a lack of understanding of how the industry works—or perhaps it’s a convenient talking point for your agenda.
4. Your Favorite Buzzwords:
"Demented, Delusional, Deceitful, Desperate, and Despicable"—a charming little alliteration you trot out every time you need filler. Here’s a thought: projecting your own tactics onto others doesn’t make them true. It only underscores how repetitive and unimaginative your arguments have become. If ERHC truly had no future, why do you dedicate so much energy to attacking it? One might think you have a vested interest in keeping the price low.
5. The Sketch of the Head (and Facebook Account?):
This one always gets me. The fact that you still bring up "the sketch" shows how deeply it lives rent-free in your mind. It was a metaphor, SSC, not a manifesto. But if you want to keep obsessing over it, by all means, carry on—it’s a delightful reminder of how far you’ll go to twist anything into an attack.
6. The "Backstop":
You keep fixating on the idea of deliberate withholding of material information. Here’s a thought: ERHC operates in a competitive, high-stakes industry where confidentiality is often critical to securing deals. Speculating on strategic silence isn’t deceit—it’s acknowledging how these industries function. If you think every company telegraphs its moves before the right moment, you’re either naive or deliberately misleading.
---
"The SSC Obsession"
Ultimately, SSC, your posts say far more about you than about ERHC or me. You claim to be here for "truth," but your endless vendettas, repetitive arguments, and refusal to engage in genuine dialogue paint a different picture. You’re not here to inform—you’re here to attack, belittle, and distract. But here’s the thing: your tactics have become as stale as your buzzwords. The truth will outlive your vendettas, and time will tell whose perspective holds weight. Meanwhile, I’ll continue to speculate based on public information and logical deductions—whether you like it or not.

The Madagascar block 3114 news is not all disappointing::
Tellus Gets Report on Prospective Oil Resources in Madagascar's Block 3114
by Tellus Resources Ltd.
|
Press Release
| Tuesday, July 29, 2014 | 4:45 PM EST
Australia's Tellus Resources Ltd. (TLU or the Company) reported that it has received a report from Denver USA based MHA Petroleum Consultants LLC (MHA) that provides an independent confirmation of significant prospective resources in Block 3114, Madagascar. Note that by definition, prospective resources are risked and recoverable.
The report, titled Technical Review and Prospective Oil Resources Assessment Block 3114 Madagascar is attached and available also on the Company’s website through the following link: www.tellusresources.com.au.
MHA have estimated the risked prospective recoverable resources in a single drill-ready prospect (the Betoiky Prospect) are as follows:
25 percent interest: Low - 2.6 million standard barrels of oil (MMstb); Best - 9.7 MMstb; High - 27.2 MMmstb
80 percent interest: Low - 8.4 MMstb; Best - 31.1 MMstb; High - 86.9 MMmstb
100 percent interest: Low - 10.5 MMstb; Best - 38.9 MMstb; High - 108.6 MMmstb
The estimated quantities of petroleum (million standard barrels of oil – MMstb) that may potentially be recovered by the application of a future development project(s) relate to undiscovered accumulations. These estimates have both an associated risk of discovery and a risk of development. Further exploration appraisal and evaluation is required to determine the existence of a significant quantity of potentially moveable hydrocarbons. The basis of risking is discussed in the MHA report.
As advised to the market June 11 TLU has entered into a binding Agreement to acquire a 25 percent interest (with the right to acquire up to an 80 percent interest) in this block for the issuance of 85 million TLU shares, subject to shareholder approval...

Actually, PetroMad has a webpage,PetroMad.com. In 2007 PetroMad acquired an offshore oil block in Madagascar, Block 3114.
Below is the last 10 years of news:
2014 PETROMAD processed and interpreted the new seismic data, integrated them with all the previous and Identified drilling location.
2015-2018 Prepared for drilling and carried out EIA for drilling.
2020 PETROMAD is looking for equity partner(s) to finish the remaining work Programs, and move to production within 18 months.
I could find no mention of ERHE or Ntephe on the webpage.
Good luck, Farrell

Another wacky dickran diatribe. The truth is you continued to promote the Offor is chairman falsehood and tried to paint it as proof of your asinine Offor owns all the erhe shares nonsense long after I reported on the information I received directly from an erhc representative. All you had to do was contact erhc yourself to get the truth but instead you chose to call me a liar and continue with your false narrative. Perhaps your rumor was speculation to begin with, but to continue it when presented with the truth was lying. You finally came clean months after I had reported the truth about erhc's chairman.
Regarding your definition of speculation - "logical deductions based on available information" - I can accept that. But to be clear, claiming a stock priced in the triple zeros for 7 years, without any financials as required by the SEC all that time, is going to dollars/share or even $8 is anything but logical. Claiming there are 100's of millions, even billions of shorted erhe shares that were shorted at $.0003 or less while unable to provide proof any erhe shorted shares even exist is beyond illogical, it is asinine. And drawing a sketch of a head, creating a fake Facebook account for it, and saying it is erhe's largest short seller is just plain embarrassing. Now it's all about "the erhc backstop", the deliberate withholding of material information, and according to dickran Total, EEZ officials, JDZ officials, erhc management, Shell Oil are all in on it. Logical deductions? Do the dickran 5 D's come to mind? For the newbies here that's Demented, Delusional, Deceitful, Desperate and Despicable.

A More Nuanced Perspective on Speculation
Kingpindg, I appreciate your attempt to meet in the middle with your speculation, but let me push back with some logic and public information that may give us a clearer picture.
1. Shell’s Global Footprint vs. Regional Expertise:
While Shell is indeed a giant in the industry with the capacity to acquire properties directly, even the biggest players recognize the value of working through partners with deep local connections. ERHC, as a legacy operator in Africa, brings relationships, historical knowledge, and local credibility to the table—assets that Shell might not always have at its disposal in certain regions. Collaborating with companies like ERHC is a strategy we’ve seen Shell and other majors use in the past to streamline access to blocks without getting bogged down in local red tape or political intricacies.
2. Peter’s "Baller" Moves on LinkedIn:
Peter’s LinkedIn activity isn’t just about showing up at high-profile conferences; it’s about positioning ERHC as a serious player in Africa’s energy future. His attendance, networking, and panel participation are indicative of a company still actively in the game—not one folding its cards and looking for scraps. It’s far easier to disappear quietly if the company were truly on its last legs, yet here we see ERHC’s CEO engaging with top-level players in the industry. That’s a bold move for a company that supposedly has "nothing left."
3. Africa’s Oil and Gas Ecosystem:
The oil and gas landscape in Africa is undergoing a shift, with an increasing focus on partnerships, local content, and leveraging regional operators to meet ambitious goals. ERHC’s long-standing involvement in African energy puts it in a position to capitalize on this trend, especially if it’s working with multiple stakeholders—majors like Shell, perhaps Total in the JDZ, and even other global players interested in assets Shell doesn’t want. If ERHC were just floundering, it wouldn’t be navigating this multi-pronged strategy.
4. The Nature of Big Deals:
You suggest ERHC lost Block 4 and the JDZ "with little or no compensation." But let’s think critically—why would a company walk away empty-handed from legacy assets that represent years of negotiation, seismic surveys, and investments? Even in the worst-case scenario of relinquishment, some form of consideration (monetary or otherwise) is almost always part of the equation. It’s far more plausible that ERHC is actively involved in structuring deals that maximize its remaining value, potentially through alliances, partnerships, or asset swaps.
5. Choosing the Adventure:
While you suggest ERHC is on a middle path of "mostly bad news with a little good," I’d counter that the evidence (Peter’s activity, ERHC’s legacy, Africa’s oil dynamics) points to a far more optimistic story. ERHC appears to be building a broader strategy, likely involving Shell and potentially others, to not just survive but thrive. The timeline may be long, and the details confidential for now, but the moves we can see suggest strategic growth, not collapse.
At the end of the day, we’re all connecting dots here. But if Peter’s activity is any indication, he’s not sitting on a sinking ship—he’s steering it toward something big. Time will tell if it’s the multi-billion-dollar adventure or something else, but I’m betting on the former.

SSC’s Twisting of Facts: Time to Set the Record Straight (Again)
SSC, your relentless barrage of accusations is as predictable as it is exhausting. But let’s clarify a few things for the sake of those genuinely interested in the truth—something you’ve repeatedly twisted to suit your narrative.
1. On the Chairman Rumor: Let’s revisit the source of the “Offor as Chairman” speculation, shall we? The rumor originated from Sunny Oputa, the head of the women’s oil conference, who directly told me and another shareholder that Offor was Chairman. Sunny was a respected industry figure, and there was no reason to doubt his word at the time. Unfortunately, Sunny was mistaken, and tragically, he passed away before this could be clarified further.
When it became evident that this information was incorrect—through direct clarification from ERHC—I promptly stopped discussing it. Sunny’s passing made it impossible to address the misunderstanding further, but I’ve taken responsibility for the speculation and clarified it publicly.
The real question is, why do you continue to dredge this up, SSC? What purpose does it serve, other than your ongoing campaign to paint me as deceitful? The truth is far simpler than the convoluted storylines you spin.
2. On Speculation and Industry Dynamics: You repeatedly conflate speculation with lying. Let me educate you on the difference: speculation involves logical deductions based on available information. It’s a tool every investor uses, especially in industries like oil and gas, where deals are often confidential until finalized. The “Offor as Chairman” rumor was not some nefarious lie—it was an honest misinterpretation of a trusted source’s statement, which I addressed as soon as the facts were clarified.
But SSC, your obsession with labeling every speculation as a “lie” reveals more about your own agenda than anything else. Do you even know the difference between honest speculation and deliberate misinformation? Or is it easier for you to smear others than to engage with the complexities of the industry?
3. On the “Backstop” and Material Developments: Your latest tirade about the “backstop” scenario is yet another example of your bad-faith arguments. Let me make this crystal clear: the idea that ERHC management might withhold material developments is not an accusation—it’s a recognition of the strategic realities in the oil business. Confidentiality is critical in high-stakes negotiations, especially when they involve major players like Shell. Speculating about these dynamics is not the same as accusing anyone of wrongdoing.
But of course, SSC, you twist this into a betrayal narrative because it fits your agenda. You refuse to acknowledge that confidentiality often serves a purpose—to secure better outcomes for shareholders. But I get it—negativity is your brand.
4. On Your Own Credibility: Let’s talk about your supposed phone call to ERHC about the Chairman rumor. Did you actually ask the right questions, or were you fishing for an answer that fit your narrative? Your “facts” are only as good as the context you provide, and given your history of selective interpretation, forgive me if I don’t take your word as gospel.
Meanwhile, you conveniently ignore your own pattern of relentless negativity and baseless accusations. For years, you’ve attacked ERHC, its management, and anyone with a positive outlook. You dismiss every potential upside as a “lie” or “baseless claim,” yet you offer nothing constructive in return. If anyone here needs a lesson in honesty and humility, SSC, it’s you.
---
"The Real Story"
Here’s the bottom line, SSC: I’m not here to convince you. Your mind is made up, and your goal has never been to engage in good faith. But for everyone else reading this, remember that SSC’s narrative is built on selective memory, deliberate distortions, and relentless negativity. He thrives on misrepresenting others’ intentions while refusing to acknowledge his own.
SSC, you love to talk about karma, so here’s a thought: What do you think it holds for someone who’s spent decades attacking, twisting, and deceiving others?
Karma is patient, SSC—and it never forgets.

Why don't you call erhc and ask why the website is down? Here's the number - 713-626-4700. They were quite helpful when I called about the rumor being circulated by guerguerian dickran claiming Offor had been made Chairman of the Board. They said there had been no change in chairman and if there was erhc would have announced such an important event.
Even though I reported back here what I had learned, dickran continued to promote and circulate his Offor as chairman lie as he/she attempted to use that falsehood to support the baseless claims that Offor owns all the erhe shares. While dickran might say he wasn't lying, just speculating, the fact is that after I reported the truth dickran continued the false claim. All it would have taken was a simple call to erhc to get the facts, but dickran instead used gossip at a women's oil conference and made up all types of reasons for why a new chairman wasn't important enough to disclose publicly. This was not speculation, but promotion of an outright, easily vetted falsehood. Everyone can judge for themselves why this behavior emanates from erhc's largest shareholder as dickran now expands on the "backstop" scenario alleging Ntephe is purposely withholding material developments from shareholders.

If you google Petromad, it was founded by Emma Roseline in 2005, in Houston, Texas. She is from Madagascar, multiple degrees internationally, worked for oil companies, ran for president in Madagascar, etc.
An interesting date because in 2005, Erhc energy, Houston Texas, was also awarded blocks in jdz.

According to guerguerian dickran, erhe's largest shareholder and known liar, erhc did a deal with Shell for EEZ block 4 and they don't disclose a word about it to shareholders. Then erhc became "an agent for Shell" and again not a word about it. erhc acquired Gabon assets and not a word about it, and now this latest claim about "high reward plays in Mozambiquet" and still nothing from the company. All, for anyone who still believes the dickran bullshit, because Ntephe wants revenge against short sellers on IHUB chat board. Short sellers no one can even prove exist.
All these years of falsehoods, make that "dot connecting" lol from someone holding 400 million erhe shares and all he/she came up with was a sketch of a head and a share price near zero lmao. I wonder how Ntephe feels about this ever growing list of allegations from his largest shareholder.
