Africa Bitcoin Corporation’s boardroom battle leaves just two directors standing
Africa Bitcoin Corporation is left with two directors after four resign amid a shareholder dispute over board appointments, while regulatory findings continue to cloud the company’s leadership.
Africa Bitcoin Corporation (ABC), a South African Bitcoin treasury firm, is currently embroiled in a boardroom battle following the resignation of four directors. This includes the chairperson and interim CEO, Norma Sephuma and Stafford Masie, respectively, due to disputes with WGW Capital Proprietary Limited, a significant shareholder.
The remaining directors, Robin Coode and Jonathan Phillips, are now tasked with rebuilding the board while addressing a separate demand for two new non-executive directors. The dispute began with a shareholder push for two additional non-executive directors, which the board initially opposed due to governance concerns. Despite the resignation of the four directors, the demand for two new appointments remains unresolved, leaving ABC in a precarious governance position as it transitions from a small-business financier to a Bitcoin treasury company.
