70% Informative
Baltasar Ebang Engonga is nephew of President Teodoro Obiang Nguema and one of those thought to be hoping to replace him.
Many of the women filmed were wives and relatives of people close to the centre of power.
One theory is that the leaks were a way to discredit the man at centre of the storm.
It is not clear why Mr Engonga made the recordings.
Activist Nsang Christia Esimi Cruz says the vice-president is trying to eliminate 'anyone who could challenge his succession' He alleges that the authorities want to use the scandal as an excuse to crack down on social media.
Mr Cruz says that the scandal is just a symptom of the illness, it’s not the illness itself.
