Yoweri Museveni has disclosed that Kenyan intermediaries facilitated Uganda’s procurement of petroleum products, prompting changes to the country’s fuel import policies. The revelation came after a Kenyan senator alerted the Ugandan president to the issue, leading to a reevaluation of the bilateral oil agreement. The Motorist Association of Kenya has since called for greater transparency in fuel pricing, citing concerns over the impact of these intermediaries on market stability. The association argues that the current system lacks clarity, affecting both consumers and local businesses. Museveni emphasized that the situation was brought to his attention through diplomatic channels, highlighting the need for improved oversight in cross-border trade. The incident has sparked renewed debate over the role of intermediaries in regional energy markets and the effectiveness of current regulatory frameworks.
