World's Longest Serving President Appoints Son As V.P by Greatzeus(m): 10:26am On Jun 23, 2016 |
Teodoro Obiang Nguema, the current serving President of Equatorial Guinea won 93.7% of the total votes cast, to be reelected as President for the 6th consecutive term this year. He is the world's longest serving President having ruled for 37years. According to local television stations, he has further consolidated his power by promoting his son, Teodoro Obiang Mangue, from "second vice President" to vice President. Power has been in the family for Equatorial Guinea's entire existence as an independent country. Teodoro Obiang Nguema took power from his uncle in 1979, through a violent coup, before sentencing him to death. He has been accused of corruption and embezzlement of public funds by foreign authorities, especially the United State. In 2014,some of his assets in California were seized,worth millions of dollars. source: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/06/22/the-worlds-longest-serving-president-just-appointed-his-son-as-vp/?wpisrc=nl_wv&wpmm=1

The Teodoro Obiang man is the worst dictator in Africa. He killed his own paternal uncle just to grab power in the late 70's. Equtorial Guinea is an Oil rich nation but all the money from Oil goes straight into the Presidents personal account. |
