In Equatorial Guinea, the Senate recently approved several bills aimed at strengthening the ethical conduct of senior officials and regulating the use of social networks. These new measures come after the release of sex tapes involving Baltasar Ebang Engonga, former director of the National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF), a case which caused shock waves in the country.
The two bills, now sent to the House of Representatives for examination and adoption, include a text specifically dedicated to senior civil servants in the Public Administration. This establishes an ethical code to which these personalities must adhere in order to guarantee their integrity and promote exemplary behavior. This framework aims to prevent incidents like the one involving Baltasar Ebang Engonga from happening again, by ensuring that state officials act with rectitude and inspire citizens through their conduct.
