Equatorial Guinea Official Looped in Scandal as Wife’s Sex Tape with Another Man Leaks
The wife of Baltasar Ebang Engonga, the former Director-General of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), has become the centre of controversy following revelations of infidelity.
The incident came to light after popular social commentator Martins Ortse, known as VeryDarkMan, shared the news on Instagram.
Ortse, who frequently comments on African socio-political issues, posted images taken from the video footage showing Engonga’s wife in an intimate moment with another man.
Expressing his disbelief, he commented on the sensational nature of the scandal. Ortse noted, “Just when I thought this story was over, it’s taken another twist.
I just saw footage of his wife with another man—it’s unbelievable.”
The Instagram post quickly gained traction, with followers reacting to the ongoing scandal and its impact on Engonga’s public image.
This revelation follows closely on the heels of an earlier scandal involving Engonga himself, who was reportedly implicated in a series of misconduct allegations.
During a government-led investigation into a fraud case, Engonga was found to have amassed hundreds of compromising videos involving various women.
The released footage and accompanying allegations have only fueled the conversation, drawing attention to issues of public integrity and privacy.
In response, Constancia Mangue Obiang, Equatorial Guinea’s First Lady, addressed the scandal with indignation.
At a high-level meeting with Prime Minister Manuel Osa Nsue, she condemned the ongoing revelations, which she said brought shame to the country’s leadership.
The First Lady expressed deep concern for the public image of Equatoguinean women, emphasizing the need for stricter protections to safeguard their dignity and privacy in a rapidly digitalizing society.
Her public stance has highlighted the importance of addressing the misuse of digital platforms in exposing private matters.
Following the mounting evidence and increased public scrutiny, Baltasar Ebang Engonga was officially dismissed from his post and detained by authorities.
TV anchor Rufai Oseni makes headlines as he speaks on fuel subsidy in Nigeria. He shared that Nigeria can have fuel subsidy without the long queues at filling stations.
“When we were still paying subsidies, there were no long queues. We were subsidising. So you can still have a subsidy regime going on, and there will be no long queues because production was close by. Dangote had it. That’s just it. That argument also falls flat.
“The biggest beneficiaries of subsidy are not Nigerians. They are crony capitalists that have big infrastructure, and they do contracts. They have been the biggest beneficiaries of the subsidy,” he said.
Lagos State Governor, Sanwo-Olu, speaks to those in the electricity sector about the usual blackouts in the state.
He speaks on ways things can change in the state and how electricity can be provided.
“We need to drop corporate egos, abandon long-standing excuses, and confront the harsh realities obstructing progress in the power sector.”
“We, state governments, used to give excuses that everything is centralised, so the Federal Government has unbundled it now. What have we done in a year and a half?” Sanwo-Olu asked.
“We take two steps forward, we go five steps backward,” he said.
Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has declared Thursday, August 20, a work-free day for public servants in the state to mark the Isese Festival.
Speaking on the celebration, he said “Ìṣẹ̀ṣe is not a relic. It is a living expression of our traditions and a celebration of Yoruba spirituality as an important part of Nigeria’s cultural and religious landscape,” he said.
He added “When the drums sound in Lagos on Thursday, they answer drums in Havana, in Salvador, in Port of Spain. Fifty-five million people and counting. Lagos is not observing a local holiday. Lagos is standing at the centre of a global heritage,” Aregbe said.
