Kenyan motorists are relieved as fuel prices remain frozen for September, avoiding a potential price hike. However, significant regional disparities in diesel prices persist, creating uneven costs for drivers across the country. The East African Petroleum Refineries Association (EPRA) confirmed the freeze, which aims to stabilize transport and household expenses. Despite this, local market forces continue to influence pricing, leading to variations between urban and rural areas. Some regions report higher diesel costs, affecting both commuters and businesses reliant on fuel. The situation highlights ongoing challenges in maintaining uniform pricing despite official measures. Authorities are monitoring the impact of these differences on the economy and public transport systems.
