Nakuru consumers will pay Ksh.177.34 for super petrol, Ksh.165.95 for diesel, and Ksh.152.21 for kerosene. Meanwhile, in Kisumu, the rates will be Ksh.178.16, Ksh.166.76, and Ksh.153.03 per litre, respectively.
EPRA confirmed that the prices include the 16% Value Added Tax (VAT) in accordance with the Finance Act 2023, the Tax Laws (Amendment) Act 2024, and excise duty adjustments for inflation under Legal Notice No. 194 of 2020.
Last month, fuel prices dropped by Ksh.4.20 for super petrol, Ksh.3.90 for diesel, and Ksh.1.00 for kerosene. There had been speculation that the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict could push prices up.

However, EPRA clarified that the current rates remain unaffected by the conflict since the country is relying on oil reserves imported before the crisis.
“The Authority has considered vessels discharged between February 10 and March 9, 2026. Most of these cargoes were priced in February, so the situation in the Middle East has not yet impacted local fuel prices,” EPRA stated.
