EconomyNigeria's jet fuel conundrum: Scarcity at home, abundance abroad

Nigeria has become Europe's largest jet fuel supplier over the past two months, with the Dangote refinery producing about 24 million liters a day and sending much of it abroad after supply disruptions linked to the Iran war and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. At home, deregulated pricing and competition from larger international buyers are leaving airlines short of fuel, pushing them into debt, route cuts, higher fares, cancellations and delays.
