Update - Russian Cargo Plane in Kano - the plot thickens

And the plot thickens

First it was a plane bound for Chad but flew past Chad to land in Kano, and then it didn’t come from Russia but came from Central Africa republic going to Chad.

Then Russians disowned the plane and said they knew noting about it. It was a French crew they said.

Then Jesus touched Russia and it was their plane but not their cargo, the cargo belonged to the French.

In between all these Modu Sheriff the Nigerian born Chadian paid a secret visit to try and get the plane released.

Then more magic happens; 

No ammunitions on board now, only French helicopters and it was being moved from CAR (as French peace keeping wound down) to Chad? Really? http://www.themoscowtimes.com/mobile/news/article/russian-plane-seized-in-nigeria-belongs-to-french-peacekeeping-mission/512688.html

So in essence, a peace keeping wound down is so secretive it involves 3 different governments with information clearance levels so high it takes over 48hours for them to get their stories straight?

Ok let’s do the maths. The plane left Bangui headed for Chad, anywhere between its flight path of hearing that N’djamena is closed, the best place to land would be Cameroon not Kano!

Because Cameroon is a French protectorate, has a defence pact with France and is nearer!

Distance between N'Djamena and Cameroon is just 604km

Distance between N'Djamena and Kano is 711km!

Distance between Bangui and Cameroon is 765km

Distance between Bangui and Kano is over 1200kms

So anyhow we look at it, Kano is a poor alternative destination for a Chad bound plane originating from Bangui.

Well, the French have been known to destabilize African nations for control of their natural resources; they were the power behind Cameroon over Bakassi issue with Nigeria. Chad is said to be eyeing the oil reserves in the Chadian basin in Borno, if France stole Bakassi by proxy, they could be helping Chad plan how to steal Borno too.

The plane would soon be released http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/12/nigeria-releases-russian-cargo-plane-impounded-kano/
