Equatorial Guinea sacks Baltasar Engonga over sex scandal
Equatorial Guinea has sacked Baltasar Engonga, its director-general of the National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), over his alleged involvement in a sex 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”.
TopNaija News reports that Baltasar Engonga has been in the news after his sextape leaked online. The anti-graft 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.
