A delegation from the Equatorial Guinea Shippers’ Council (CCGE), led by its Director-General, H.E. Mr Javier Ondo Mba Eyang, participated in the Ordinary Session of the Steering Committee of the Union of African Shippers’ Councils (UCCA), held in Douala, Republic of Cameroon, on 8 and 9 July 2026.

The delegation consisted of the Director-General, accompanied by technicians Pedro Monsuy and Antonio Christian Moro, who actively participated in the various working sessions and technical meetings held during the gathering.

During the session, representatives of African Shippers’ Councils reviewed the implementation status of resolutions adopted at previous meetings, analysed the UCCA’s financial position, assessed the Secretary-General’s activity report, and discussed various initiatives aimed at strengthening regional cooperation, facilitating trade and developing multimodal transport in Africa.

Strategic projects promoted by various member states were also presented. These included the organisation of international forums on logistics and transport, the promotion of international legal instruments relating to the digitalisation of transport documents, and other initiatives designed to modernise the logistics chain and improve the competitiveness of African trade.

As part of the mission, the CCGE delegation held a technical meeting with the UCCA Secretary-General. Discussions focused on the implementation of the Waiver/BESC system, institutional strengthening of the Equatorial Guinea Shippers’ Council, and opportunities for technical cooperation with other Shippers’ Councils across the continent.

**Recognition of the Director-General’s Leadership**

One of the highlights of the mission was the presentation of an official distinction to the Director-General of the Equatorial Guinea Shippers’ Council, H.E. Mr Javier Ondo Mba Eyang, by the Union of African Shippers’ Councils (UCCA).

This distinction recognises his leadership, commitment and contribution to strengthening cooperation among African Shippers’ Councils, as well as his involvement in initiatives aimed at promoting regional integration and the development of transport and logistics across the continent.

This recognition is a source of pride for the Equatorial Guinea Shippers’ Council, highlighting the institution’s ongoing efforts to consolidate its presence at specialised African forums and reaffirm its commitment to modernising the transport sector and foreign trade.
