In Nakuru, petrol, diesel and kerosene will retail at Ksh211.35, sh 200.88 and Ksh194.46 respectfully.

As per Epra, reduction cost in fuel cost is due to a decrease in landing price by 16.11 percent from US$827.75 per cubic metre in Oct 2023 to US$694.44 per cubic metre in November 2023.

For Diesel landing cost, the reduction is by 5.43 percent from US$ per cubic metre to US$826.01 per metric while kerosene decreased by 6.63 percent from US$759.93 per cubic metre.

Kenyans have taken to their social media platforms to air their opinions on this owing to the fact that for some days now they have been calling for the reduction of fuel prices due to skyrocketing cost of living.
While many are not satisfied however with the very low deductions as they were expecting a deduction of up to 30%, others are grateful that the stride as been made and they hope to see the impact soon
