Equatorial Guinea: A World Sex Symbol By Olusola Ajiboye
Equatorial Guinea may not occupy a big space on the world map. It may not angle among countries known for wealth in mineral resources, large population, arable lands and aquatic splendor. Not many outside its borders often refers to Equatorial Guinea except when it.
Reverses into civil wars, natural disasters or military coups. It may not even parade stars in music, sports or academics.
Today, Equatorial Guinea is the most mentioned in the media apart from the United States which a few days ago elected Donald J. Trump as its 47th President. Why is the world talking Equatorial Guinea? No thanks to its randy civil servant Balthasar Egonga who just lost his position to an unbridled display of sexual prowess on bed.
In an unprecedented sex-rump, the Guinean ex-Director General, National Financial Investigation Agency was said to have ‘banged’ four (400) hundred women most of them wives of prominent political leaders and top government functionaries. Some are society ladies. His joystick did not spare relations of his wife and wives of close friends. A pregnant woman was also fingered as one of his concubines.
How and where did Egonga acquire his manniless on bed? What gave him such a colossal energy that women always lust for a bite of his carrot? I hope readers are not suggesting a heavy dosage of a newly manufactured “kayamata’ or ‘kerewa’ not yet on display on pharmacy stands. I have tried searching medical science records for possible clues to the Egonga bed-gymnasm and it has been quite revealing.
Balthasar Egonga is a man of high-libido, highly sensual and sexually driven. Men of such characteristics are described as passionate, energetic, amorous, lustful, easily aroused, sexually motivated, highly desirous and frisky. Behavioural scientists have specific terms for each of such character flaws to include, hyper-sexuality, increased desire, high sexual disorder and libidinous. Psychiatrists hold views that permissiveness are innate and normal but can become problematic if allowed to interfere with daily life.
An hypersexual can, as a result of untamed management of his masculinity relapse into distress, compulsive or harmful behavior. A promiscuous man apart from being sexually prolific is often polygamous beyond moral and legal boundaries.
He keeps multiple female partners irrespective of whether he’s legally bonded to them. Medical science is hard in its verdict on sexually prolific men like Egonga. Womanizer, sex-addict, serial-seducer, philanderer, are some of the negative terms, all of which paint a weird picture of men suffering hyper-sexuality disorder.
The equatorial Guinea top-bureaucrat has been fired by President Obiango-Nguema Mbasogo on 4th November, 2024 for acts bothering on “irregularities committed in the exercise of his functions as well as inappropriate family and social conducts for the performance of public duties”.
The former Director-General, National Financial Investigation Agency (equivalent of Nigeria’s Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC) facing prosecution under Equatorial Guinea’s decree 118/2024 has appeared before a law court in handcuffs and leg-chains and remanded in Malabo’s Beach Prison, pending further trial.
Balthasar Egonga is fighting tooth and nail to repair whatever is left of his battered image. Full of regrets for the odium caused by his immoral acts and possible back-lash on his family, Egonga penned an emotive message to his wife “if anything happens, you are strong enough to guide our children through anything. I trust you completely, you are not just my wife, but my heroe..”
His many tweets also reveal a desperation to clutch on all available straws. One of the tweets specifically referred to the videos which have gone viral on the internet as A.I edited with remarks that “my enemies are trying so hard to bring me down..” To wash the mud off his body, Egonga went biblical and quoted John Chapter Eight (8) verse seven (7) where Jesus challenged stone throwing Jews who felt sinless to cast the first stone.
The fallen public officer is not yet done in frantic efforts to remain the good boy, in the eyes of his nuclear family. Describing his wife Samantha Gemita in superlative words as “a wonderful woman”, Egonga pledged a commitment to his marriage by shunning engagements that are inappropriate and wishing her all the best.
He also had words to sooth the emotional trauma of his exposed female sex-partners… “Don’t end your life even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. There are people who would be devastated by your loss. Friends, families or even people you haven’t met yet, who could become significant in your life.”.
In a prelude to his trial, Balthasar Egonga has vowed to take legal actions against his country’s criminal Investigating Department for violating his privacy and exposing his Eight (8) Children to public snares and insecurity. The cobweb of Scandals on his neck is still eliciting different reactions on what sort of man Egonga is. A Nigerian actress Sarah Martins sees him as every woman’s dream who is available as a tool by some women to clean their husband’s corruption records. A catholic priest father Kelvin Ugwu even took a swipe at those craving for the Egonga sex-videos as not morally superior and asking them to confess their own sins.
It is unclear if the Egonga nuclear family will remain together as his trial continues. The possibility of unliding more cans of worms on his illicit extra marital affairs will surely catch a conspicuous mention in the Guinness Book of World records.
