Africa is not a ‘gas station’, European countries eyeing gas fields warned

Keep off Africa’s fossil fuel reserves. That is the message delegates defending the continent at the ongoing climate change conference have for Europe.

Dean Bhekumuzi Bhebhe of Don’t Gas Africa is of the view that Europe does not mean well for Africa.
