  "account": "In Kenya, the government has spent KSh4.6 billion from the Petroleum Development Levy Fund to protect consumers from the impact of rising global petroleum prices. This intervention has allowed the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) to maintain the same pump prices for Super Petrol, Diesel, and Kerosene for the next 30 days, from November 15 to December 14, 2026. Despite increases in the landed costs of these products between September and October, with Diesel seeing the highest rise of 6.73%, EPRA decided to keep the prices unchanged. The KSh4.6 billion expenditure aims to stabilize pump prices during the current pricing cycle.",
  "summary": "Diesel recorded the highest increase at 6.73 per cent, with its average landed cost rising from USD 1,065.38 to USD 1,137.09 per cubic metre.",
