TotalEnergies Marketing Kenya has not lowered prices of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), denying consumers the benefit of a reduction in value-added tax on cooking gas.

A spot check at the company's fuel stations shows TotalEnergies has kept LPG prices unchanged at Sh3,330 for the 13-kilogramme gas and Sh1,540 for the six-kg cylinder.
