Cristel Nchama, one of the women linked to the sex tapes of Baltasar Ebang Engonga, the former head of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), has filed a formal complaint with the National Gendarmerie in Malabo.
This situation has created a major scandal in the country. Engonga has faced severe criticism after a fraud investigation led to searches of his home and office, where about 400 explicit videos were found.
These videos reportedly show Engonga in intimate situations with many women, including notable individuals like his brother’s wife, his cousin, the sister of the president, the wife of the police chief, and around 20 wives of ministers.
The videos, which were said to be recorded in Engonga’s office, hotels, and even bathrooms, were reportedly made with the consent of the participants.
Nevertheless, their leak has resulted in a significant public uproar and personal distress for those involved.
Cristel Nchama’s complaint to Real Equatorial Guinea indicates that she was in a four-year relationship with Engonga and feels deeply embarrassed by the video’s release.
She accused him of tricking her into trusting him and mentioned that she had initially been against being filmed, thinking the recordings would be deleted.
“I am humiliated. It is my reputation, my honour. I want to know where these images came from and why he kept the images,” Cristel said, demanding compensation for the damage to her reputation.
The scandal’s impact was immediate, leading to Engonga’s dismissal from his job on Thursday.
The government has also suspended all officials linked to sexual activities in ministry offices, showing a strong response to misconduct among public servants.
