Baltasar Ebang Engonga, the Director General of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), is currently embroiled in a massive sex scandal.

The scandal came to light during an investigation into alleged fraud, where authorities discovered over 300 tapes of Baltasar with various women, including married women, on his computer.
These encounters took place in various locations, including his office, hotels, and toilets, with all participants reportedly giving their consent to being recorded.

However, it’s worth noting that Equatorial Guinea has a complex history, with the country experiencing significant sociocultural discrimination and exclusion, particularly for women. The country’s past, including its colonial legacy and current dictatorship, has contributed to its marginalisation and social invisibility.
Investigation Underway
However, the Attorney General’s Office, led by Anatolio Nzang Nguema, is investigating the circumstances of the videos and Engonga’s conduct.
Real Equatorial Guinea further reports that this inquiry will reportedly determine whether Engonga is a carrier of any sexually transmitted infections (STIs), with suspicions raised that he may have knowingly exposed others to potential health risks. “If proven, he could face charges for endangering public health, a serious offence under Equatorial Guinean law,” stated the Attorney General’s Office.
The attorney general further emphasised that while consensual relationships are legally permissible, intentionally exposing others to infectious diseases is punishable.
He warned, “The population is in danger because, behind each woman involved, there are potentially spouses and other people indirectly exposed.”
Mr Nguema added that investigators are focused on gathering concrete evidence to determine if formal charges can be pursued against Engonga.
