Anyone know why New Kent, VA's VOR approach is NA at night? And does this
prohibition apply to part 91 operators?

Yes, it applies to Part 91. Why wouldn't it? Don't know why the new night
prohibition, but I see on airnav.com that the rwy 28 REIL is out of service
indefinitely, and also according to airnav.com, there is no REIL on rwy 10,
although the approach chart says there is one.

That link doesn't get all the way to the approach chart.

Any night "NA" applies to all operations. It generally is because of
significant obstacle penetrations of the visual segment, a fairly recent
change to TERPS.
