Equatorial Guinea: Vice President’s response to attempts of destabilization and defamation

Following the spread of videos by Mr. Baltasar Ebang Engonga on social media, the Vice President of Equatorial Guinea, H.E. Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, quickly identified the malicious intentions hidden behind this propaganda.

The aim of these ill-intentioned individuals, who have been spreading these posts, is clear: to tarnish the country’s image and damage its reputation on the international stage. These malicious conspirators are exploiting the situation to launch a smear campaign targeting not only the nation but also its authorities.

In the face of this media manipulation, the Vice President made a firm and commendable decision, deserving of support and recognition. Without wasting any time, he decided to take decisive action to identify the individuals responsible for spreading these harmful videos. This initiative demonstrates his determination to protect the image of Equatorial Guinea and respond to attempts of destabilization.

Furthermore, the Vice President has issued clear instructions to telecommunications regulatory bodies to take measures aimed at limiting the spread of inappropriate and offensive content, including pornographic videos circulating on social media in Equatorial Guinea.

With this decision, he is committed not only to defending the reputation of his country but also to protecting the moral values of Equatorial Guinean society. This action, which is part of a proactive approach, highlights the Vice President’s dedication to safeguarding the integrity of the nation and preserving its image internationally, despite the ongoing attempts to destabilize it.
