Wandayi confirme une baisse du prix du diesel suite aux instructions de Ruto

Le ministre de l'Énergie, Opiyo Wandayi, a confirmé que le prix du diesel sera réduit de 10 shillings kenyans lors du cycle de révision de juin-juillet, conformément aux instructions du président William Ruto.

Wandayi a déclaré le 5 juin que le ministère suivrait les instructions présidentielles pour mettre en œuvre cette réduction. Il a précisé que le prix du diesel à Nairobi tombera à 222,86 shillings kenyans par litre une fois la mesure appliquée. Ruto avait ordonné cette baisse le 22 mai après avoir rencontré des acteurs du secteur des transports à Mombasa. Ce changement entrera en vigueur lors du prochain cycle de tarification afin de stabiliser les coûts. Wandayi a exhorté les transporteurs à réduire les tarifs en fonction de toute baisse du prix du carburant. Il a également souligné le rôle de la taxe sur le développement pétrolier (Petroleum Development Levy) pour protéger les consommateurs contre la hausse des prix mondiaux dans un contexte de tensions au Moyen-Orient. Les prix de l'essence super et du kérosène doivent être annoncés le 14 juin.

Energy and Petroleum Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi has ordered the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) to exclude a 60,000-metric-tonne consignment of super petrol from monthly cost computations, as it was imported outside the government-to-government (G-to-G) framework.

South African petrol prices will rise by R3.06 per litre to R23.25 inland from midnight on 1 April, while diesel reaches a record R26.11 per litre after a R7.51 increase.
