Deputy President Kithure Kindiki has accused opposition leaders of exploiting the rising fuel crisis for political gain and warned against inciting Kenyans to violence.

• The Deputy President stated that the fuel price increase is a global issue, not solely attributable to the Kenya Kwanza administration.
• He highlighted that fuel prices had been lowered from a high of Sh218 per litre to about Sh171 before renewed global conflict disrupted supply chains.
• Kindiki defended the government's interventions, including reducing VAT on petroleum products from 16 percent to 8 percent and injecting over Sh12 billion into the fuel stabilisation program.
