Gachagua Demands Cancellation of G2G Fuel Deal, Gives Ultimatum to Ruto - April 2026

Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has demanded the immediate cancellation of Kenya's government-to-government (G2G) fuel import framework, alleging the deal is a source of opacity and rising fuel costs. Opposition leaders, led by Gachagua, have accused President William Ruto of manipulating Kenya's fuel procurement to inflate prices for personal gain, claiming a company linked to the president, Gulf Energy, was improperly included in the fuel import framework. The opposition is demanding action from President Ruto to address rising fuel prices and proposing measures to cushion consumers.
