The First Lady expressed her anger during a meeting with Prime Minister Manuel Osa Nsue, who handles administrative coordination.
Mrs Constancia Mangue Obiang also wanted to know what the government planned to do to fix the problem, which, in her words, “does nothing but distort and degrade the image of the Guineo-Ecuadorian woman.”
In a statement posted on Facebook Wednesday, November 6, 2024, the First Lady Press Office (Ofiprensa Primera Dama) revealed that Mrs Obiang called for immediate government intervention to uphold the dignity of Equatoguinean women and protect their privacy in the digital age.
She said that even though the government has worked to improve gender equality, more needs to be done to make sure that all women live in a safe and respectful place. This includes taking steps to stop events like these from happening in the first place.
Prime Minister Osa Nsue also said that he understood how the situation affected people and stressed how important it was to take steps to protect people’s privacy and the country’s reputation.

He further noted that the government is contemplating stricter privacy laws as it grapples with the scandal’s impact on the nation’s public image and gender equality efforts.
Recognising the issue, he stated that his office actively seeks ways to control it and draw lessons from these mistakes to prevent similar incidents from affecting society.
“The Government of Equatorial Guinea, aware of the impact of social media and the growing presence of private content on digital platforms, is also considering strengthening laws related to privacy and personal data protection to prevent further violations of citizens’ rights,” Mr Osa Nsue said.
“The case of Baltasar Ebang Engonga has sparked a broader discussion on the boundaries of privacy in the digital age and the role of institutions in protecting individuals’ fundamental rights.
“In this regard, the government emphasised the need for a comprehensive approach combining legislation, education, and social awareness to curb the proliferation of inappropriate online content.”
The First Lady and the Prime Minister ended the meeting with a shared pledge to collaboratively implement measures to restore public trust in institutions and safeguard the reputation of Equatoguinean women from similar incidents in the future.
