Motorists have been saved from paying Sh23.29 more on a litre of diesel by a State subsidy that kept pump prices unchanged for the fourth month in a row.

The Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) retained the price of diesel at Sh110.60 a litre in Nairobi for the month running to March 14 despite a jump in the cost of shipping the commodity.
