Well, ACN have just had a number of pilots resign, so they need them for Nigeria. I'm not sure if the contract in Sudan is confirmed yet, but the numbers you quote would equate to 5 pilots on site on a 6/6 roster, which is what they'd need for 2 Dauphins.
CHC have been to Malabo and Cameroun as well as Nigeria, but no word seems to be coming out yet as to what they want - maybe just a look-see at what they've taken on. Rumour is that they're looking very hard at ACN numbers in Lagos.
The Schreiner contract in Cameroun is up for renewal soon, so if there are going to be any changes to contracts or pay that would seem like the time they'd be done.
The training captain in Cameroun is to replace Bob Evans who's now back in Nigeria and I guess will also shortly be looking for A109 and S76 captains if what we hear about Caverton is true. Their A109 has had a couple of flights out of Lagos recently, so I guess it's now operational.
