(Business in Cameroon) - On January 28, 2021, the Common Court of Justice and Arbitration (CCJA) of the Organization for the Harmonization of Business Law in Africa (OHADA) rendered its decision in the case (since 2019) between the Port Authority of Douala (PAD) and a consortium formed by Bolloré and APM Terminals, a subsidiary of the Maersk Group.
Indeed, on February 27, 2020, the PAD appealed against the order issued on December 31, 2019, by the Administrative Court of the Littoral to suspend the creation of a delegated authority for the management of the container terminal of the Port of Douala.
At the end of a hearing in the framework of that case, the CCJA rejected the appeal lodged by the PAD and condemned it to "pay the costs".
