Guinea: Petrol Prices Spark Protests
A 25% increase in petrol prices (from GF 8,000 or US$ 0.89 per litre to GF 10,000 or
US$ 1.11 per litre) resulted in barricades going up in the streets of Conakry on Friday, 6 July 2018.
Disturbances are expected to intensify today as the main unions have called for a general strike.
The port remains a well-protected area. Our local office would recommend that seafarers stay within its vicinity.
