4 most flamboyant politicians from Africa who have got their fashion game intact

Teodorin Nguema Obiang Mangue – Equatorial Guinea

The stylish and flamboyant son of the country’s president, Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, owned a private collection of 25 supercars, hypercars and luxury motor cars that were put up on the United Kingdom-based auction house’s website early this year, ahead of an auction in a 12th-century abbey in Geneva.

In 2017, the Equatorial Guinean president’s son was convicted by a Paris court for embezzling tens of millions of dollars from his government and laundering the proceeds in France. His assets in France valued at over $115 million were also seized.
