Kenyans are set to benefit from reduced fuel prices following an announcement by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) of new cuts for March. This marks another drop after reductions in January, aiming to provide relief to households.

• In Nairobi, super petrol decreased by Sh4.24 per litre, now retailing at Sh178.28. Diesel dropped by Sh3.93 to Sh166.54, and kerosene by Sh1.00 to Sh152.78 per litre.
• The price reductions are attributed to a decrease in the average landed cost of imported petroleum products, with global import costs falling by 2.69 percent for super petrol and 6.37 percent for diesel.
• EPRA Director General Daniel Kiptoo confirmed these prices include the 16 percent Value-Added Tax (VAT) and revised excise duty rates, effective until March 14.
• Deputy President Kithure Kindiki noted the gradual decline from a high of Sh218, stating it offers relief and sustains macroeconomic stability.
