Fuel prices increase in local currency, remain unchanged in foreign currency

In a statement, ZERA said it has noted with concern that some individuals and companies are advertising mobile fuel dispensing services through the press and social media. “Stakeholders and the public are advised that ZERA does not have a license category for mobile fuel dispensing, nor does it license trucks to do retail filling of fuel to consumers at their homes or doorsteps, nor at any other undesignated places,” read the statement.

The price for diesel is now $44 325, 83 and blend E15 is pegged at $44 689, 53

“Operators may sell petroleum products above the prescribed prices depending on their trading advantages and should display the prominent places as provided by the fuel pricing regulations,” read the statement.

“Stakeholders are advised that the petroleum price released by Zera can be verified on the Zera official website, Facebook and X (formerly Twitter).
