Video – Father Baltasar Engonga receives loud cheers at the inauguration of Gabon’s President

A video has surfaced on social media. It features Mr. Baltasar Engonga Edjo’o. He is the President of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC) Commission. The video shows him receiving cheers at Gabon’s presidential inauguration.

In the viral clip, Mr. Engonga was praised when introduced at the event. His name may linger in social media and Equatorial Guinea's history for years. This is due to his ongoing corruption and sexual trials.

Mr. Baltasar Ebang Engonga has trended for negative reasons over the past year. Last year, sex tapes were uncovered by Equatorial Guinea's national security apparatus. These tapes involved over 400 women and were found on his laptop.

The leaked videos have circulated widely online since then. He faces criticism from his fellow citizens and others in Africa for this scandal. Many believe he has brought shame to his wife and children.

The leaked tapes show Engonga engaging in sexual acts with various married women. This includes his brother’s wife, a cousin, and wives of high-ranking officials, including ministers. Reports indicate that these tapes were discovered during a fraud investigation.

This scandal is considered the biggest sex scandal in Equatorial Guinea's history.
