CS Wandayi: Oil marketers are hoarding fuel

Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi has accused oil marketers of "commercially opportunistic" fuel hoarding that is restricting supply in the market.

While addressing public fears about a potential fuel crisis Wednesday, the CS immediately offered a clear assurance while asserting that there is no shortage of petroleum. He noted that reserves are currently at the required national level, with the Kenya Pipeline Company holding significant stocks: 102 million litres of petrol, 146 million litres of diesel and 1.7 million litres of dual-purpose kerosene.
