'We Sleep at Petrol Stations': Malawi, Kenya and Nigeria Grapple with Fuel Crisis | Firstpost Africa
Watch this video as Firstpost explains how global energy market disruptions stemming from international conflicts are causing severe fuel crises across Africa, deeply impacting daily livelihoods and national economies. In Malawi, acute foreign currency shortages have halted fuel imports, forcing motorists in Blantyre to sleep overnight in their cars for a single tank while public transport fares rise sharply. In East Africa, Kenya’s energy regulator has announced sharp price increases across petrol, diesel, and kerosene due to rising import costs from West Asia, prompting extended tax relief to soften the economic blow. Meanwhile, Nigeria presents a paradoxical contrast: despite the Dangote Refinery posting record net profits from European exports, everyday citizens face soaring pump prices. Caught between rising public pressure ahead of upcoming elections and IMF warnings against restoring broad fuel subsidies, African nations face complex fiscal challenges in protecting citizens from the escalating global energy crunch. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.---
