Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, vice-president of Equatorial Guinea, has announced the federal executive council’s resignation after it failed to meet performance targets.
In an X post on Tuesday, Mangue who is also the son of President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, said the cabinet quit after achieving “barely 10 percent” of its goals.
“The rule is simple: public responsibility has to come with results,” he said.
“The state puts significant human, material and financial resources at the disposal of the government to address the needs of the population.
“So the degree of execution achieved is clearly insufficient in relation to the expectations and commitments undertaken.”
Mangue did not specify what targets were set.
Mbasogo has been in power since 1979, making him the world’s longest-serving leader.
He appointed the outgoing government, which is tasked with administrative coordination, in 2024, with Manuel Osa Nsue
