Actor Kunle Remi has shared his observation about the 2024 U.S. elections.
He said he notice that no ballot boxes went missing, no argument on result accumulated, no hand written results, nobody thr£atening to b£at you if you go out to vote and only the votes spoke.
The government of Equatorial Guinea has dismissed its Director General of National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), Baltasar Ebang Engonga after over 400 s3x t3pes involving him and wives of prominent men in the country surfaced online.
It would be recalled that Baltasar was featured in a series of tapes making the rounds online having romantic affairs with his brother’s wife, the wife of the vice president, wife of the inspector general of police, amongst others.
The government said in a statement that, “According to Real Equatorial Guinea, the dismissal of Mr. Engonga, the son of Baltasar Engonga Edjo (current president of the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa, CEMAC), was formalised in Decree No. 118/2024, dated November 4.
“The decree cited Mr. Engonga’s alleged misconduct in office and his family-related and social behavior as incompatible with public office.”
Reacting to the scandal, the First Lady of Equatorial Guinea, Mrs. Obiang, took to Facebook on Wednesday to call for immediate government action to protect the dignity of Equatoguinean women in the digital age. She stated that while progress has been made in gender equality, proactive measures were necessary, not only to address such incidents but to prevent them.
“It is essential to create a safe and respectful environment for all women,” she said. Similarly, Prime Minister Osa Nsue also acknowledged the damaging impact of the situation, particularly on the country’s public image and gender equality initiative“
“The Government of Equatorial Guinea, aware of the impact of social media and the growing presence of private content on digital platforms, is contemplating strengthening laws related to privacy and personal data protection to prevent further violations of citizens’ rights,” Nsue said.
He added that the case had sparked a broader discussion on the boundaries of privacy in the digital age, urging for a comprehensive approach involving legislation, education, and social awareness to curb the spread of inappropriate online content.
The country’s Vice President, Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue has ordered the country’s telecommunications ministry, regulator, and mobile providers to take action against the viral distribution of p3n3graphic videos. He expressed that families should not be allowed to suffer due to the circulation of Engonga’s videos.
It would be recalled that the government also imposed restrictions on the sharing of multimedia files over mobile data on platforms like WhatsApp. Local news outlet Ahora EG, however, reported that citizens were frustrated by the new limitations, as they were forced to rely on Wi-Fi connections to share media.
Baltasar’s videos were believed to have been released while he was detained at Malabo’s notorious Black Beach prison for embezzling public funds. Equatorial Guinea’s chief prosecutor, Anatolio Nzang Nguema has assured that if medical tests confirmed that Engonga had a s3xually transmitted disease, he would be prosecuted for endangering public health.
The Defence Headquarters has confirmed the emergence of a new terrorists group known as ‘Lukarawas’, exacerbating insecurity in the northwestern part of Nigeria.
The Director of Defence Media Operations, Maj.-Gen. Edward Buba, made this known while briefing newsmen on the operations of the military on Thursday in Abuja.
Buba said that the new terr3r group emerged from the Republic of Niger after the coup that led to the breakdown of military cooperation between Nigeria and Niger. He said that the terrorists began incursion into northern parts of Sokoto and Kebbi States from the Niger Republic and Mali axis, particularly after the coup in Niger Republic.
According to him, before the coup, there were joint border operations with Nigerien security forces, which kept the terrorists at bay. “The t3rrorists took advantage of the gaps in cooperation between both countries and exploited difficult terrains to make incursions in remote areas in some North Western states to spread their ideology,” he said.
Buba said that the group was accommodated by the locals, who initially thought that the group meant well for them, adding that they failed to report the movement to the military and security agencies.
He gave assurance that troops had sustained intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) to degrade the terrorists. He added that the terror group had continued to take advantage of the vast under-governed areas to hide and evade troops as well as harass the locals. According to him, troops are locating them and eliminating the thr3at.
