The government of Equatorial Guinea has dismissed Baltasar Ebang Engonga as Director General of the National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF) after widely circulating s3x videos involving him and numerous women surfaced online.

The government earlier suspended Mr Engonga following the leak of over 400 alleged s3x tapes of him in intimate situations with multiple women, some linked to high-profile figures in the country.

Real Equatorial Guinea reported that President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo ordered the dismissal of Mr Engonga, the son of Baltasar Engonga Edjo, current president of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC).

The newspaper added that according to Decree No. 118/2024, dated 4 November, the dismissal cites Mr Engonga’s alleged misconduct in office, alongside family and social behaviour deemed incompatible with public office.

A state television station in the country, TVGE, reported Mr Engonga’s s£x tapes were leaked when he was remanded in custody at Malabo’s infamous Black Beach prison over an embezzlement of public funds.

Meanwhile, Vice President Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue directed the country’s telecommunications ministry, regulator, and telecommunications companies to curb the distribution of pornographic videos.

He emphasised that the government cannot continue to allow families to be harmed by the viral circulation of the 54-year-old economist’s video.

Equatorial Guinea’s chief prosecutor, Anatolio Nzang Nguema, has assured the people that if medical tests confirmed the economist had a sexually transmitted disease, he would face prosecution for endangering ‘public health’.

A Tragic Loss: Security Guard Killed by Dogs in Lekki

A heartbreaking story has circulated on social media since yesterday: a young man from Benue State (tiv) known as Steve, working as a security guard in an estate in Lekki, was reportedly attacked and killed by dogs. The dogs attacked him severely, leading to his tragic death, and his remains have been taken to the mortuary.

Ekwutosblog have also learnt that the owner of the dogs has been arrested. The general public is calling on law enforcement to take action, and I hope this post reaches his family, as some reports suggest they may not yet know of his passing.

Nationwide Blackout As National Grid Collapses Again

The National Grid suffered another collapse on Thursday, 7th November, plunging Nigeria into a fresh round of darkness.

The fresh collapse of the National Grid occurred barely two days after it collapsed on Tuesday.

It would be recalled that following Tuesday’s collapse, the National Orientation Agency (NOA) blamed the constant grid collapses in Nigeria on the rejection of loads by the electricity distribution companies (Discos).

The NOA said the Discos are unable to carry the capacity of generated electricity.

Speaking via a statement on Tuesday after the national grid collapsed for the tenth time in 2024 alone, the NOA said the inability of the discos to play their part despite increased generation is responsible for the constant collapses of the nation’s electricity grid.
