Equatorial Guinea Official Arrested Over 400 Sex Tapes Featuring President’s Sister, High-Profile Women
A government official in Equatorial Guinea has been arrested after the discovery of over 400 explicit videos allegedly involving the country’s President’s sister and other high-profile women. The scandal has sent shockwaves through the nation, raising concerns about privacy violations and potential blackmail schemes.
Baltasar Engonga, the Director General of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), has been arrested after being accused of recording over 400 explicit videos involving the wives of prominent public figures in the country.
The scandal came to light amidst a separate investigation into fraud allegations against 54-year-old Engonga, as authorities discovered a collection of CDs with explicit content while searching his home and office.
The recordings implicate several individuals, including the spouses of high-ranking officials such as the wife of the Director General of Police. They also involve close family members and relatives of senior government figures, notably President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo’s sister and the spouses of multiple government ministers.
The videos are said to show encounters in several locations, such as Engonga’s office, where the national flag can occasionally be seen in the background.
The recordings, initially said to be consensual, have been leaked online, causing widespread public outrage and close examination by local media. According to Ahora EG’s reports, these revelations are unprecedented in the country’s history and reveal what they described as “flagrant violations” of ethical standards by a high-ranking public official.

Locally referred to as “Bello,” Engonga’s position has now become central to a national controversy, involving allegations against several high-profile individuals.
The Attorney General of Equatorial Guinea, Nzang Nguema, addressed the scandal by explaining that consensual relations without any form of coercion are not considered criminal according to current laws.
Nevertheless, he expressed worries about public health risks and stressed the need for a supportive atmosphere that encourages reporting any incidents of non-consensual encounters or abuse.
The Attorney General highlighted the potential risk of sexually transmitted diseases linked to Engonga’s alleged activities, emphasizing the urgent need for a government response.
In response to the scandal, the government quickly suspended officials involved in any sexual activities within ministry offices. This action is a key part of a broader “zero tolerance” policy on behavior that undermines public trust.
Vice President Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue expressed his condemnation of the actions in a statement on X (formerly Twitter), emphasizing that “ethics and respect are fundamental to our Administration.” He also reaffirmed the nation’s commitment to upholding integrity in public service.
The case has underscored the government’s commitment to upholding professional and ethical standards within its institutions. Officials have expressed their intention to avert future violations of public trust and strengthen a culture of respect in the workplace.
