From the Colectivo's manifesto:

The Equatorial Guinean Youth Collective, we are a youth organization, born in Equatorial Guinea in secret, to organize and fight for our legitimate rights and interests, joining the youth, strengthening the youth movement.

In their call to action, the Colectivo references the revolutions in Egypt and Tunisia.
We have teamed up to find the exchange of news, views and the effective support of workers and democratic organizations in the imperialist countries and mainly of Central African countries, as young people and workers who have brought down dictatorships in Tunisia and Egypt.

In their latest post:

The Guinean youth constitutes 63% of the population and has the ability to drag the people of Equatorial Guinea to overthrow the dictatorship.

It is clear that Obiang and his regime are afraid of youth, first revolutions of Tunisia, Egypt and other African countries such as Spain now have a crisis in the regime.

The Colectivo claims also to have been inspired by the recent youth protests in Spain against the government's austerity measures.
Thanks to Spanish television and also a few weeks after the outbreak of the revolt of young people in Spain, due to problems of light and for those who can afford to buy a satellite dish in Spain we have learned that a group of young people are demonstrating against the policies of their government peacefully, and they are doing, and here in Guinea, given our underground, we are studying how we can activate the machinery to make it work here.
