PHOTO | FILEA standoff between petroleum distributors and the government over implementation of a law setting fuel transit time, could plunge the country into a fuel crisis. I am also going to meet my Cabinet colleague Nkaissery and inform him of the same so that businesses are not affected. It requires licensed fuel transporters to ensure that petroleum tankers are only driven between 6.30am and 6.30pm. “The letter should clearly say that the 6.30 to 6.30 rule should be suspended and when arrested, you will only be escorted. If there is no policeman at that time then you just continue,” Mr Karanja said, giving mixed signals over the standoff.
