The global fuel crisis continues to send shockwaves across the region, with several African countries feeling the pressure and Kenya’s neighbour Ethiopia now grappling with severe shortages. Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi says the persisting crisis in the Middle East, which supplies about 20 percent of global petroleum products, is expected to last longer than anticipated. Mbadi now says the government is relying more heavily on its G2G arrangements to source fuel from outside the region and prevent Kenya from slipping into fuel shortages.
