A release from Minee puts a fine on households in custody of these introduced packages in a fraudulent manner in the national market.
Antagaz, Butagaz, Primagaz, Petrogabon, Semmenkgas and Monaga gas are not the more vulgar in Cameroon, but according to a press release from the Minister of water and energy (Minee), these names represent "domestic gas cylinders, introduced in a fraudulent manner in the national market without prior checking", presenting imminent dangers for people and goods.
The release from the Minister, Basile Atangana Kouna was made public Monday. "It's been almost two months after which it was noticed that these bottles do not meet the standards of Cameroon», says a shopkeeper at a neighborhood in Madagascar, Yaoundé. And the problem, according to the seller, was caused by the leaders of Camgaz.
To Minee, "20% of foreign brands in circulation in Cameroon were introduced by Camgaz." This is why the promoter of this structure acknowledged that four of the indexed non-compliance marks are his responsibility and agreed to take them back from households.
Moreover, the release of the Minee indicated precisely that "anyone who has gas cylinders of non-standard brands Transcogaz, Berrogaz, Pizogaz and Shell Gas, is asked to deposit at any closest Camgaz station for such bottles to be replaced with bottles of Camgaz".
Despite the rarity of the licensed marks, "the household must now be extremely vigilant both at the purchase of domestic gas as well as new gas cylinders on instructions, so as to ensure trademark are engraved on recorded or exchanged bottles from distributor
