 Kenya hikes fuel prices by 6% following lingering Middle East tensions Kenya raised the maximum retail prices of petrol and diesel on Wednesday, the energy regulator said, citing higher import costs linked to the conflict in the Middle East. The east African nation hiked petrol prices by 6% and diesel prices by 4.5% as it relies on the Middle East region for nearly all of its fuel supplies. A litre of diesel will cost 227.76 Kenyan shillings ($1.76) in the capital city of Nairobi, from 217.86 shillings, while kerosene will rise to 219.87 shillings from 191.38 shillings between October 15 and November 14, when new prices will be announced, TRT Afrika reported. The energy regulator said the government extended a reduction in value-added tax on fuel to 8% from 16% until January 14. Fuel prices affect multiple sectors including transport, agriculture and construction.

 'RHOA' star Pinky Cole begs judge not to expose her finances


Pinky Cole, best known for founding the Slutty Vegan restaurant chain and appearing on Real Housewives of Atlanta, is asking the court to keep her financial records private in her ongoing bankruptcy case. 


According to filings, she fears that if her Chapter 11 documents remain public, they will continue to circulate online and be used by media outlets and content creators.


Cole explained that she has multiple companies tied to the case, and she’s already seen sensitive details reported publicly. 


For example, TMZ previously broke the story about one of her creditors seizing one of her homes. The court later granted her request to have that property returned.


Her plea to file paperwork under seal highlights her concern about the reputational and personal impact of having her financial struggles widely shared. 


By keeping the documents confidential, she hopes to protect herself and her businesses from further exposure while navigating the bankruptcy process.
