Update: Burkina Faso has now moved the 11 detained Nigerian Soldiers into isolated detention.

Apparently, the Nigerian government has been unable to formally prove to the Junta that the C-130 Aircraft was indeed flying to Portugal.

The Junta suspects the aircraft was a spill from the ones deployed to thwart the Benin Coup, as alleged by sources close to the story.

In December 2023, Burkina Faso arrested 4 French nationals in Ouagadougou and accused them of espionage (spies). The French government denied they were DGSE spies (Direction générale de la sécurité extérieure)

The Junta demanded €150M and some equipments in exchange for their release.

After prolonged negotiations and mediation by Morocco. The Burkinabè government finally released them exactly one year later in December of 2024 after a reported payment of €60M handled by the Moroccan government.

France however denied making any payment up till date.

But reports in the francophone countries insist the Burkinabè government were indeed compensated with €60M and some heavy artillery equipments.

As it stands, the Burkinabè are ready to strech it to their favour, unless the Nigerian Government accelerate talks.
