Equatorial Guinea’s government resigned this Tuesday collectively after failing to meet its core economic and administrative objectives, officials confirmed.
Vice President Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue announced the decision, noting the administration had barely achieved ten percent of its designated targets.
Prime Minister Manuel Osa Nsue Nsua, appointed in 2024, presented the official resignation of all cabinet members to the president.
The vice president did not specify which exact development or financial benchmarks the government had failed to achieve during its tenure.
The ruling Democratic Party of Equatorial Guinea characterized the mass resignation as a periodic, standard institutional reorganization of state leadership.
Party officials stated the shakeup aims to adapt the current administrative structure to the country’s newly emerging national priorities.
The outgoing administration had previously implemented various public initiatives focusing on local infrastructure, public services, and broader economic development.
President Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo has held continuous power in the West African oil-producing nation since the year 1979.
His lengthy tenure establishes him firmly as the world’s longest-serving president currently holding office in any sovereign nation.
The political landscape now braces for a sweeping cabinet reshuffle to navigate the country through its ongoing economic challenges.
