 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.

 LAGOS SEALS OVER 20 PROPERTIES IN IKEJA FOR PLANNING INFRACTIONS


The Lagos State Government, through the Lagos State Physical Planning Permit Authority (LASPPPA), has sealed over 20 properties in Ikeja Local Government Area for various physical planning infractions as part of its ongoing efforts to enforce compliance with the State’s physical planning laws and regulations.


The enforcement exercise was led by the Permanent Secretary, Office of Physical Planning, Tpl. Olayinka Wasiu, alongside the General Manager, LASPPPA, Tpl. Kehinde Osinaike, and Directors of the Authority.


The affected properties, comprising landed properties, uncompleted buildings and structures with unauthorised extensions, were found to be in contravention of the Lagos State Physical Planning Law.


Speaking during the exercise, Tpl. Olayinka Wasiu stated that the enforcement action was a proactive measure aimed at preventing building collapse, promoting orderly physical development and ensuring strict compliance with the Lagos State Physical Planning Law.


He stressed that the State Government remains committed to safeguarding lives and property by enforcing planning regulations that guarantee a safe, resilient and sustainable built environment across Lagos State.


The Permanent Secretary disclosed that contravention notices had been served on the affected property owners, clearly outlining the necessary steps required to regularise their developments before the enforcement exercise became inevitable.


He urged property owners and developers to always obtain the appropriate planning permits and approvals before embarking on any form of development or structural alteration, noting that compliance with planning regulations is essential to achieving sustainable urban development.


Tpl. Wasiu reiterated that the Ministry of Physical Planning and Urban Development, through LASPPPA, will continue to intensify monitoring and enforcement activities across the State to curb illegal developments and preserve the integrity of the built environment.


He further assured law-abiding residents that the Authority remains steadfast in its commitment to ensuring an orderly, aesthetically pleasing and legally compliant physical environment that supports the Lagos State Government’s vision of a safe, modern and sustainable megacity.
