Wondering About the Vice Presidents Flight

News 24 reports that the Vice presidents fight from Tripoli to Bangui put down in Gbadolite in the DRC at night on an unlit runway due to bad weather in Bangui with 35 minutes of fuel remaining. What I'm wondering is what was the listed alternate? What type aircraft? Was this a legal flight? Bangui is a long way from anywhere suitable.
