Nigeria protests at fuel price rise
Ordinary Nigerians and trade unionists have condemned the government for withdrawing a fuel price subsidy which has led petrol prices to more than double in many areas.
Many Nigerians are angry at the announcement, fearing the price of many other goods will also rise.
There have been small protests and the trade unions have called for a strike.
