“Remember, this isn’t just about defending a company; it’s about safeguarding our nation’s economic stability and protecting the livelihoods of thousands. The actions of one individual in the US should not dictate the destiny of countless Cameroonians,” the platform beckons.
GDC, it should be said, provides alternative energy to Cameroonians for breweries and it is also helping to dilute the electricity deficiency in the country as it provides an alternate solution to high consumers to get electricity for their production.
The company has successfully operated within Cameroon since 2009 and has unlocked the country’s energy resources to supply the local economy in Cameroon with gas and electricity, whilst RSM has benefitted financially they intend to play no part in further development and seemingly are not concerned about the future of Cameroon or Cameroonians employed in a viable company.

GDC primarily supplies major industrial customers, including GUINNESS, DANGOTE, SABC, CHOCOCAM, CICAM and CAMLAIT, among others.
In 2015, GDC signed an agreement with national power provider ENEO, to replace Heavy Fuel Oil (“HFO”) usage at power stations in the area, with a cleaner alternative: natural gas.
GDC has long-term gas supply contracts with customers who use gas for a variety of different applications. In early 2016, VOG added to its 20km exploitation license at Logbaba, with the assignment of 75 percent of the neighbouring 1,235 square kilometre exploration block, Matanda, increasing its footprint in Douala, Cameroon.
GDC has secured its position as a dominant gas supplier to industries in Douala. The company is focused on a “pure gas” sales model, delivering a consistent cleaner fuel source to a diverse range of markets and applications.
Fears are rife that Cameroon’s renewable energy strides, as well as thousands of lives, could be lost if the situation is not arrested.
If the feared scheme goes through, hundreds of Cameroonians risk losing their direct jobs, while thousands of others who are indirectly recruited through the activities of GDC will not also be spared. The move also threatens Cameroon’s clean energy supply to critical businesses and government structures.
