Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has called for the immediate cancellation of Kenya's government-to-government (G2G) fuel import framework, describing it as the central source of opacity in the country's energy pricing system and a key driver of rising fuel costs.

In a press briefing attended by other opposition leaders in Nairobi, Gachagua claimed the G2G arrangement involving international suppliers such as Saudi Aramco has weakened competitive procurement and enabled politically connected intermediaries to dominate fuel imports.
