A cross-subsidy mechanism has successfully kept kerosene prices below the Sh200-a-litre mark for the period up to October 14, despite rising global fuel costs and shipping expenses.

• Kerosene will retail at Sh191.38 per litre in Nairobi, with diesel at Sh217.86 and petrol at Sh214.03.
• The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) is responsible for the fuel price reviews.
• This pricing stability for kerosene contrasts with past price fluctuations and the potential for higher costs without the subsidy.
