Vehicles queue at a petrol station yesterday.
AN acute fuel shortage was reported around Kenya yesterday.
The shortages could have been even worse if motorists had not stayed away from petrol stations on Saturday and Sunday.
For the next one month, the ERC has dictated a maximum price of Sh111.91 for super petrol, Sh107.9 for diesel and Sh84.31 for a litre of kerosene. This is a big drop from last month prices when motorists were paying Sh119 per litre for super, Sh110 for diesel and Sh88 for kerosene.
