The prices of common market products such as maize, potatoes, and green vegetables are set to rise further in May, following the increase in inflation rates.
According to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), the annual inflation rate climbed to an eight-month high in April due to a tight supply of food items.
KNBS revealed increases in the prices of basic commodities, including food, transport, housing, water, electricity, and gas.
In the transport sector, despite the drop in fuel prices as announced by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), it will not have an impact on bus fare prices in the coming months.
