Today it's 219.87. 🔥\n\nEPRA's own numbers, one month apart. Petrol went from 214.03 to 226.96. Diesel, 217.86 to 227.76. Everyone is arguing about petrol at the pump — matatu fares, drivers, conductors. Loud arguments! 🚌\n\nBut kerosene rose by 28.49 bob a litre. Almost 15% in one month. And kerosene doesn't argue. It's the jiko in the kitchen, the light a kid does homework under, the last option in the house that already cut everything else. The steepest hike landed on the people with the thinnest margin. 🍲\n\nA driver can pass the fare to a passenger. But that mama boiling githeri for four children can't pass anything to anyone. She just pays. Quietly. That's the part that doesn't trend. 🤫\n\nWhen the price of everything can be reset in one afternoon by a statement you weren't consulted on, you learn to keep something aside that can't be repriced. That's not financial advice. It's just what this month taught again. 🙏\n\nhttps://www.epra.go.ke/sites/default/files/2026-09/Press%20Release%20Maximum%20retail%20petroleum%20prices%20in%20Kenya%20-%2015th%20September%202026%20to%2014th%20October%202026.pdf\n\nhttps://www.epra.go.ke/sites/default/files/2026-10/EPRA%20Press%20Release%20-Oct%20Fuel%20Prices.pdf"}
