Balthazar Ebang Engonga the government official heading ANIF (National Agency of Financial Investigation), the anti-corruption and anti-money laundering unit of the Ministry of Finance in Equatorial Guinea, made waves on the internet in the first week of November 2024. While under investigation for diverting 1,223 million CFA francs in state funds to his bank accounts, the authorities discovered more than 300 sex tapes on his office laptop, containing consensually recorded pornographic videos with multiple women in his office, as well as in hotels and other places.
Many people expressed shock and amusement, with some calling him a “Legend”, “P.Diddy of Africa” “Businessman” and so on. Considering that Equatorial Guinea is a small counry with a population of only 1.715 million, some social media comments made jokes claiming he slept with half of the country.
But what could be the reason behind someone sleeping with over 300 women? The following are some of the possible causes:

Equatorial Guinea is a Promiscuous Country
Yes, it doesnt take a genius to learn that Equatorial Guinea is among the top 10 countries with loose women in Africa. Save yourself some $millions of dollars in research by a well-funded western organization. Balthazar Ebang provided us with some free study and evidence in the form of seized sex tapes, amounting to over 300 clips. What more can you want? Normally, there is a high level of prostitution in poor countries. We are talking about third world countries in Asia, Africa and South America. Most women engage in prostitution to earn a living even if they are married. Equatorial Guinea is one of the poorest countries in the world according to the United Nations, Human Rights Watch, CIA and The Borgen Project. Over 70% of people in Equatorial Guinea live in poverty. There is a high school drop out rate at primary school level.
Logically, high poverty levels will correlate with high levels of prostitution and promiscuity in a given country, if other factors like religion and cultural conservatism are not taken into account. However, there is a type of promiscuity that is not tied or related to poverty. This is the kind of promiscuity found in liberal countries even those which are highly developed such as the USA and Europe. In this case, women indulge in casual sex trysts (hookup culture) with men they meet, not just on dating apps, but in normal society, in places like clubs, bars and other public hangouts. These women engage in casual hookups for various reasons such as boredom, validation seeking, thrill seeking, poor/unsatisfying sex life, infidelity, loneliness, lack of sexual partner and just for the fun of it. Basically, these women are loose, call them sluts, bitches or whatever if you can. They will engage in promiscuous behaviour even if they are financially well taken care of by their partners. That is why we should not rush to judge women from poor countries, because they have no choice in most cases. Most engage in prostitution for survival, not for fun or pleasure. Those in developed countries have no excuse because they have a high standard of living. They engage in promiscuity for fun.
Let’s look at the women who were sleeping with Balthazar Ebang.
According to statements issued by the Equatorial Guinea authorities, the Vice President ordered Telecom companies to curb the circulation of pornographic material leaked on the internet because these videos have the potential to “destroy families”. Balthazar Ebang was sleeping with wives of high profile figures in the government and social circles and most probably these women previously worked as Escorts. These are wives of rich men, wives of men with good jobs and financial stability. They were happily sleeping with Balthazar Ebang, spreadeagled with thighs wide open, enjoying the doggystyle, blowjobs, cowboy rides and proudly looking at the camera like pornstars. Why would you do this if you have a supportive man? It’s because you are loose, a BITCH in capital letters. Social Media, Porn, Celebrities and sites like OnlyFans have changed the way people look at relationships. Committed relationships have been rendered useless, outdated and laughable. It’s all about following and copying the hedonistic lifestyles of influencers on Instagram.
