Wandayi confirma corte no preço do diesel após diretriz de Ruto

O secretário de Gabinete de Energia, Opiyo Wandayi, confirmou que os preços do diesel serão reduzidos em 10 xelins quenianos no ciclo de revisão de junho a julho, conforme determinado pelo presidente William Ruto.

Wandayi afirmou em 5 de junho que o ministério seguirá as instruções presidenciais para implementar o corte. Ele observou que os preços do diesel em Nairóbi cairão para 222,86 xelins quenianos por litro assim que a medida for aplicada. Ruto ordenou a redução em 22 de maio após uma reunião com as partes interessadas do setor de transporte em Mombaça. A mudança deve entrar em vigor no próximo ciclo de preços para estabilizar os custos. Wandayi pediu que os operadores de transporte reduzam as tarifas em linha com qualquer queda nos preços dos combustíveis. Ele também destacou o papel da Taxa de Desenvolvimento de Petróleo (Petroleum Development Levy) em proteger os consumidores de preços globais mais elevados em meio às tensões no Oriente Médio. Os preços da gasolina comum e do querosene estão programados para serem anunciados em 14 de junho.

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.
