The Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) has temporarily suspended its planned nationwide shutdown of flight operations amid a dispute over jet fuel prices. The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) countered claims that Jet A1 fuel sells for N3,300 per litre, stating prices range from N1,960 to N2,800. Aviation Minister Keyamo appealed for restraint on price hikes and operations suspension, promising federal government action.
