The Energy and Petroleum Ministry has threatened to crack down on filling stations that have continued to sell fuel at high prices, despite lower prices announced on Tuesday.

Cabinet Secretary (CS) Opiyo Wandayi said that some filling stations were yet to lower the pump prices despite the adjustments by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) that saw the prices of a litre of petrol, diesel, and kerosene drop by Sh8.18, Sh3.54, and Sh6.93, respectively.
