FUEL prices in Zanzibar remained stable for the past three months following measures taken by the government to provide subsidies to cushion Zanzibaris against the impact of the increasing petroleum prices in the world market.
THE Zanzibar Water and Energy Regulatory Authority (ZURA) has announced new fuel prices for September/October as it remains the same because the government continues issuing subsidies per month since June to reduce the impact of increasing petroleum prices globally.
According to ZURA the prices for kerosene, petrol and diesel, for the past three months have remained the same while jet fuel price has dropped from 3,147/- in August to 2,681/- in September, a difference of 466/- which is equivalent to 15 percent.
