Joseph Oketch has been appointed the Acting Director General of the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) following the arrest and subsequent resignation of Daniel Kiptoo, who is under investigation for an alleged artificial fuel shortage.

• Daniel Kiptoo's resignation came amid probes into manipulated national fuel stock data.
• Key stakeholders involved include EPRA, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), and the Petroleum Principal Secretary Mohamed Liban.
• Preliminary findings suggest officials falsified fuel stock levels to justify an overpriced and substandard emergency fuel shipment procured outside the Government-to-Government (G2G) framework.
