Don't Blame the "Flying Cofin" ....

President John Kufuor, accompanied by a large delegation and the local press, was to attend the Equatorial Guinea’s independence celebration, but his Malabo-bound flight suddenly returned home, allegedly due to technical errors in the aged presidential airplane, popularly called the “Flying Coffin”.

Is it possible the flight was abandoned because the Ghanaian delegation obtained information that President Teodoro Obiang Nguema had “died or fallen in irreversible coma.”?

Equitorial Guinea president denies rumours of his death

His spokesmen said the rumours were “false”, but the President himself has yet to make a public appearance.


The opposition group “Democrats for Change” yesterday evening claimed to have been in direct contact with high officials within the Malabo presidency, alerting about the “possible death or at least irreversible coma” of President Obiang.

The “source” in Malabo allegedly had asked the opposition group to make these news public as soon ass possible to avoid “an anti-democratic solution” in Equatorial Guinea, with the possible power handover to President Obiang’s son “Teodorín”.
