But they are always compensated??? Anyway how would you do all the business with zero profits? I think it's not the first time this is happening

The State will pay marketers billions of shillings through a fuel subsidy to keep pump prices unchanged and ease public anger over the rising cost of living.

Marketers will fully be compensated for their margins of Sh12.39 per litre of super petrol and Sh12.36 for diesel.

This allowed the energy regulator to keep diesel and petrol prices unchanged at Sh110.60 and Sh129.72 respectively.

Without the subsidy, motorists would have paid a historic high of Sh143.48 per litre of petrol and Sh126.28 for diesel in what could have stoked pressure on inflation.
 
Is that subsidy sustainable? the gavament is just spreading the risk by collecting the money from other sectors where the impact may not be immediately felt.
