Kenyans Blast Government Over High Fuel Prices

September 15, 2021

Kenyans have expressed their dissatisfaction with a considerable increase in the price of fuel.

Following an announcement by the Energy Petroleum Regulatory Authority, the price of this valuable commodity reached an all-time high in the country (EPRA).
EPRA declared in a statement that the price of a liter of super fuel would rise by Sh7.58.

Similarly, the price of a liter of petrol has risen by Sh7.94, while the price of a liter of kerosene has risen by Sh12.97.

As a result, Super Petrol, Diesel, and Kerosene will now cost Sh134.72, Sh115.60, and Sh110.82 per liter in Nairobi, respectively.

The rains started beating us when briefcase companies were awarded and paid upfront tenders by treasury to supply fuel to NOC and they never supplied. Prisko Networks Limited took 9.3B and never delivered fuel. Now they are part of the largest fuel retailers in Kenya #FuelPrices

Kenyans complain of #FuelPrices & other ills & there is no one leading them anymore in public demonstrations. It is now beyond any peradventure of doubt that all public demonstrations for democracy & against State ills were because Raila Odinga was the leader. Demos are now dead.

Only in Kenya that Govt will take your Sh5.40 per litre to stuff into a mysterious escrow account in the name of hedging (and potential subsidy) only to slap you with an increase of Sh8 to Sh13 per litre of petrol and kerosene respectively.

Kenyans have begun mobilizing against the corrupt Kenyatta dynasty, who are choking the country under massive debt, high commodity prices, crazy #FuelPrices and an illegal curfew. Arise! #RevolutionNow pic.twitter.com/9Dt3U3grYt
