Baltasar Ebang Engonga Scandal

Baltasar Ebang Engonga, Director General of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), is under intense scrutiny following the leak of explicit videos allegedly found on his work computer.

These videos reportedly depict Engonga in compromising situations with multiple women, including high-profile individuals and relatives. The scandal surfaced during a fraud investigation within ANIF, where investigators discovered over 300 explicit videos stored on his office computer.

The recordings allegedly involve encounters with various women, including married individuals connected to prominent figures in the country.

Notable names mentioned include his brother’s wife, his cousin, and even the sister of the President. Although the videos are believed to have been recorded with mutual consent, their storage on a government-issued device has caused widespread outrage, both within the government and among citizens.

In response to the scandal, Vice-President Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue announced measures to prevent further incidents, including the installation of surveillance cameras in government offices to deter inappropriate behavior.

Davido Begging for Sex

In April 2024, Nigerian music star Davido faced public backlash after a video surfaced showing him allegedly pleading with an American woman for sex.

The woman claimed that Davido had urged her not to release the footage. At the time, Davido was engaged to Chioma, leading to widespread disappointment among fans who expected his fidelity.

The situation escalated when fellow artist Wizkid mocked Davido by sharing the video on social media, intensifying discussions and reactions online.

Egungun of Lagos

Nigerians were surprised on Monday when a private video of popular lifestyle creator Kuye Adegoke, also known as Egungun of Lagos, was leaked online.

The video, which quickly spread on social media, shows Egungun on a video call with a light-skinned woman. In the clip, he is brushing his teeth and briefly exposes his private parts while wearing shorts.

The incident has caused a lot of talk online. However, his wife, Pashotah, defended him, saying the leak was a blackmail attempt.
