Equatorial Guinea has sacked Baltasar Engonga, its director-general of the National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), over his alleged involvement in a s#x scandal.
According to Real Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Mbasogo,
president of Equatorial Guinea, fired Engonga for “irregularities committed in
the exercise of his functions, as well as inappropriate family and social
conduct for the performance of public functions, as stated in Decree number
118/2024, dated November 4”.
Engonga is the son of Baltasar Engonga Edjoo, the current
president of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC).
The Central African nation has been enmeshed in a s#_x
scandal after officials, who searched the home and office of the anti-graft
boss as part of an investigation into alleged fraud, uncovered about 400
explicit videos purportedly featuring him and multiple women.
Among the discoveries were tapes of Engonga seemingly having
romps with his brother’s wife, his cousin, the sister of the president of
Equatorial Guinea, the wife of the director general of police, and about 20
wives of ministers, among others.
The now-viral videos were filmed in his office, hotels, and
toilets — allegedly with the consent of participants.
The government had suspended all officials said to have had
s#xual relations in offices of ministries.
The government also announced plans to install surveillance
cameras in all government offices.
‘WE’LL LEARN FROM THE
ERROR’
In a meeting with Constancia Mangue, the first lady, Manuel Nsue, prime minister in charge of administrative coordination, said the country will learn from the error to prevent future occurrences.
“It is a situation that has been presented to us and what we
must do is look for mechanisms to control it and learn from these errors, so
that such events should not be reflected in our society again,” he said.
The first lady said the scandal is “distorting” the image
and reputation of women in the country.
