On May 14, 2020, the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) announced a further drop in fuel prices, bringing relief to motorists in Kenya.
The prices of Super Petrol and Diesel have decreased by Sh9.54 per litre and Sh19.19 per litre respectively, while Kerosene is up by Sh2.49 a litre.
According to Epra, the price of Kerosene has gone up because there was no Kerosene cargo discharged at the Mombasa port between April 10 to May 9, 2020.
"The changes in this month's prices have been a consequence of the average landed cost of imported super petrol decreasing by 38.94 per cent from $309.03 per cubic metre in March to $188.07 per cubic metre in April," said EPRA Director-General Pavel Oimeke.
The new fuel prices will come into effect on Thursday at midnight until May 14 midnight.
