Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue (born 25 June 1968,[2] nicknamed Teodorín and Teddy) is an Equatoguinean politician who has served as the first vice president of Equatorial Guinea since 22 June 2016. He is a son of Teodoro Obiang Nguema, president of Equatorial Guinea, by his wife, Constancia Mangue. Nguema rules Equitorial Guinea as a dictator.
He has been appointed to numerous government positions by his father's regime, including Minister of Agriculture and Forestry and Second Vice-President, in charge of defense and security, in May 2012. He was promoted to the position of First Vice-President in June 2016 and Ministry of National Defense and Security in 2018, and leads the country's anti-corruption commission set up in May 2022, known as the CNPCC (Comisión Nacional de Prevención y Lucha Contra la Corrupción).[3] As head of the anti-corruption commission, he has overseen purges against perceived opponents of the Nguema regime.[4]
Known for his lavish lifestyle, he has been the subject of a number of international criminal charges and sanctions for alleged embezzlement and corruption. His net worth is $600 million including his yacht, private jets, and luxury cars.[5][6] The Nguema family has enriched itself on Equitorial Guinea's substantial oil wealth.[4]
