Kenyan lawmakers are demanding the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum implement a digital system to monitor fuel stocks in real-time within six months. This move follows an inquiry into irregularities in the petroleum supply chain.

• The Senate Energy Committee requires real-time data on fuel stocks, imports, and allocations from oil marketing companies.
• Key agencies involved include the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum, Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC), Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), and Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS).
• The directive stems from concerns over transparency and accountability highlighted by an emergency fuel procurement in March 2026.
