Fuel crisis bites as Eldoret petrol station runs dry, displays 'No Fuel' sign - April 2026

A fuel crisis is significantly impacting Eldoret, with petrol stations reportedly running dry and displaying 'No Fuel' signs, highlighting widespread shortages. Wakenya have started struggling to find fuel in Uganda due to shortages experienced in the country, especially in Nairobi. An unprecedented two-week fuel saga in Kenya has left authorities and the public baffled, with a swift resolution that defies explanation. Former Chief Justice David Maraga claims Kenya is being sold contaminated fuel, raising serious concerns about public health and safety, alleging a conspiracy to push substandard products onto the market. Additionally, the Kenyan drivers' association alleges a deliberate conspiracy between oil sellers and officials within the energy sector.
