The High Court in Nairobi has refused to fast-track a petition challenging the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA)'s recent fuel price increases. The court has directed the petitioner to serve all respondents before further directions on June 2, 2026.

• The petition challenges revised maximum retail petroleum prices for the May 15 to June 14, 2026 pricing cycle.
• Petitioner is Francis Awino, national convener of Mtetezi movement, suing EPRA and several Cabinet Secretaries.
• Awino argues the price review lacked adequate public participation and transparency, potentially raising transport and food costs.
