The 80-year-old President of Equatorial Guinea, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, who has ruled for more than 43 years, will seek a sixth term in November. The Vice President, his son, Teodoro Nguema Obiang Mangue, announced this on Friday. Apparently, the leadership position in Equatorial Guinea is a family business.
A reminder that democracy is not only about elections.
