Transport operators are experiencing relief as the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has reduced diesel prices by Ksh10 per litre in its latest review.

• A Ksh10 reduction in diesel prices
• EPRA announced the new fuel prices
• Government to continue cushioning consumers with Ksh10 billion subsidy through the Petroleum Development Levy (PDL) Fund

Kenyan motorists and businesses are anxiously awaiting the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA)'s fuel price review, as President William Ruto's pledge to cut diesel prices by Sh10 per litre faces its crucial test.

• Sh10: The promised reduction in diesel price per litre.
• EPRA: The regulatory body responsible for the fuel price review.
• The review follows a significant fuel price hike in the previous cycle, which triggered protests and government intervention.

Kenya is set to see a significant drop in diesel prices, with a Sh10 per litre reduction announced for the June-July cycle, while Super Petrol will see a marginal decrease.

• Diesel prices will decrease by Sh10 to Sh222.86 per litre in Nairobi.
• The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) implemented the new prices.
• The government is utilizing approximately Sh10 billion from the Petroleum Development Levy (PDL) Fund to subsidize diesel and kerosene prices.

The Motorists Association of Kenya (MAK) has strongly criticized the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA)'s latest fuel price review, accusing the regulator of a lack of transparency and failing to provide consumers with adequate relief.

• MAK stated that the petrol price reduction was a "paltry Ksh0.22 per litre" despite a significant drop in global oil prices.
• The association claims the Ksh10 diesel price reduction was a result of "opaque political engagements" rather than the official pricing formula.
• MAK is demanding a full public audit of the fuel pricing formula and called for Parliament to scrutinize EPRA's independence.
