Kenya fuel regulator raises pump prices again

The energy regulator has increased fuel costs, with public transport fares expected to climb.

Kenya's energy regulator has raised pump prices in its latest review, triggering concerns about wider economic impacts. Following the increase, matatu fares are projected to rise by 10 per cent, according to the regulator's assessment.

The fuel price hike is expected to drive up transport costs across the economy as operators pass on higher expenses to passengers.
