Nigeria aviation shutdown - fuel price rises

This is the news item I saw this morning..

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/...ng-fuel-prices

Nigerian airlines are to suspend all domestic flights from Monday over a fourfold increase in jet fuel prices, an umbrella organisation of operators said on Saturday.

The Airline Operators of Nigeria said the price of jet fuel had jumped from 190 to 700 Nigerian naira per litre (from $0.45 to almost $1.70). The rise in jet fuel prices is primarily caused due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February.
Have a few friends there now on contract work so a bit concerned.
