Security Agencies Investigate Impounded Antonov Aircraft In Kano by okiezman(m): 10:43pm On Dec 06, 2014
•Sources alleges American propaganda

By Senator Iroegbu in Abuja and Ibrahim Shuaibu in Kano

An intelligence source has said investigation is ongoing into the intercepted and impounded suspicious Russian-made Antonov aircraft with a chopper tucked in it at Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano Nigeria.

The source said the government’s action includes using diplomatic means to unravel the mission of the aircraft, its origin and destination.

Responding to THISDAY inquiry, a top military personnel said that all necessary investigations are being carried out to ascertain those behind the impounded aircraft and its contents.

Security operatives at Malam Aminu Kano International Airport said the seized plane was loaded with arms bound for N'djamena, capital of the Republic of Chad.

The aircraft with registration number AN 124100 RA 82038 departed from Bangui in Central African Republic, and was said to have landed in Kano after a technical problem encountered while airbus.

A security source told THISDAY in Kano under condition of anonymity  that the plane loaded with various types of arms including AK- 47 rifles, military hardware and two helicopter inside the plane.

Let's hope this explanation from the Security Operatives is true.

Antanov are operated commercially from Ukraine

Here is a link to the official Antanov site showing the contact address http://www.antonov.com/contacts

The Ukrainians and not the Russians operated this aircraft.

I can bet my last buck that the aircraft departed from somewhere in eastern Europe (Bulgaria, Hungry, Ukraine) and that it's original flight path would have been through Egypt but diplomatic pressure from Russia and Israel on getting the intel on the contents of this cargo forced the Egyptians to deny the cargo aircraft airspace clearance mid flight.
The aircraft was then forced to reroute through the Mediterranean into Algeria given that the Libyan air space is shut down for civilian purpose.

The crew was then desperate for refueling and was then forced to request entry into Nigeria for that same purpose.
Unknowing to them the Nigerian security outfits had been tipped off by the Russians and Israelis.

This is checkmate move from Putin on Obama.

A Russian airplane intercepted by Nigerian authorities Saturday on its way to neighbouring Chad, was transporting a large cache of AK47s and bullet proof vests, and other items, the News Agency of Nigeria has reported.
Security operatives at the Malam Aminu Kano International Airport, Kano, on Saturday seized the plane which landed at the airport at about 2a.m. as a result of technical problems.
Crew members of the airplane have been detained while investigations are ongoing, NAN quoted a source as saying.
“Security has since been beefed up at the airport in order to ensure proper investigation,” the source said.
The general manager of communication, Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria, FAAN, Yakubu Datti, confirmed the seizure of the plane.
He said the pilot sought permission to land at the airport after the plane developed problems.
“The plane had a technical problem and the pilot sought (for) permission to land at the airport’’, he said.
Mr. Datti said security agencies had since commenced investigation into the matter.
Security sources told PREMIUM TIMES the plane was travelling to N’djamena, the capital of Chad.
A spokesperson for the Nigerian military, Chris Olukolade, could not be reached on Saturday for comments.
The spokesman of the Joint Military Task Force in Kano, Col. Eze, did not also respond to telephone calls.
The Police spokesperson in Kano, Magaji Majiya, said details of the arrest could only be provided by the airport security.
This is the third time since 2009 that a Russian plane loaded with arms would be arrested in Kano.
The detained planes were later released after investigations.
The destination of the latest aircraft has however raised concerns amid increasing worries in Nigeria over Chad’s alleged role in the Boko Haram insurgency plaguing Nigeria’s
North east.

It is a pure Ukraine aircraft operated by Antonov Airline for freighting cargo.

Russia doesn't operate this way. Ukraine and USA are currently allies. So the CIA must have everything to do with it.

[b]Your analysis is Plane did not take off from Russia
It could not land in Egypt cause of diplomatic pressure
Rerouted to Algeria and Lybia
Last resort option was landing in Nigeria because

Putin tipped Nigerian authorities off ?
How's that a checkmate move by Putin ? Are you saying USA orchestrated this incident with Ukraine to cause a political rift for Russia ? But Russian president saw this and cleared his country ?

In that case you are forgetting that the news said the plane was heading to chad , Mediterranean or not , Niger Republic and Chad will be the first place to arrive , not Nigeria

Nobody seems to remember the fact that in September Nigeria signed a deal with Russia to deliver Mi-171Sh helicopters and Mi-35M helicopters ?
If you do remember the deal , you would find this " [size=15pt]impound[/size]" suspicious because Mi-171Sh and Mi-35M are**** "[size=15pt]choppers[/size]"**, which is what was found on the [size=15pt]impounded Antonov[/size]

US govt sources old Soviet military stockpiles from eastern Europe destined to their allies


[size=18pt]U.S. says it will buy Russian helicopters for Afghan military[/size]
(Reuters) - The Pentagon said on Monday it will spend $572 million to buy 30 Russian-built military helicopters that will be used by Afghan security forces.
[img]http://s1.reutersmedia.net/resources/r/?m=02&d=20130617&t=2&i=742229858&w=580&fh=&fw=&ll=&pl=&r=CBRE95G1UN300[/img]
The Mi-17 helicopters will be used by Afghanistan's National Security Forces Special Mission Wing, which supports counter-terrorism, counter-narcotics and special operations missions.

The contract with Rosoboronexport, the Russian arms company, covers spare parts, test equipment and engineering support. The Pentagon said the work would be performed in Russia. It is expected to be completed by the end of 2014.

A year ago, the Defense Department purchased a dozen of the Mi-17 aircraft from Rosoboronexport for $217.7 million, as part of a larger contract originating in 2011.
http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/06/17/us-afghan-usa-helicopters-idUSBRE95G18620130617

Another reason for the choice of Russian equipment is that it won't be traced directly to the Americans.

Russian weapons have been proliferated globally by the US

Don't be silly. If you read what I posted you will know that the Antanov is operated commercially by a Ukrainian firm.

This began after the collapse of the Soviet Union and old military Antanov's in the Ukraine were converted for commercial purposes.

Here is the official contact address for Antanov.
http://www.antonov.com/contacts

Guess what? It has their contact address in Ukraine

The Journalist or whomever opined that being a Russian manufactured aircraft then the operator will be Russian.
