In a statement released on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, RURA Director General Evariste Rugigana said petrol will retail at Rwf1,629 per litre, down from Rwf1,663, while diesel will remain at Rwf1,652 per litre.
The new fuel prices will come into effect from 7:00 PM on August 7, 2024, for two months.
"These adjustments are based on recent fluctuations in international petroleum product prices," Rugigana explained.
This marks the second time in a row the price of petrol has decreased since April when RURA reviewed the prices of fuel upwards.
Before the review of the prices in April, a litre of petrol cost Rwf 1,637 while diesel cost Rwf 1,632.
