Reduction in fuel prices

The Kenya Kwanza government pledged to review the taxes and lower pump prices.

After his swearing-in, the head of state scrapped the fuel subsidy program, stipulating that it was a burden to the Treasury. This led to an increase in fuel prices. He, however, introduced a fuel stabilization fund after the first 100 days of his tenure that led to a reduction in the fuel prices and cushioned taxpayers from petroleum price spikes.
The price of super as announced by EPRA for the period effective 15th September 2022 to 14th October 2022, was KSh 179.30 per litre. The price of Super on the 25th of February 2026 is KSh 178.28.
