Central African government prepares fuel price adjustment

The Central African government is preparing a possible adjustment to fuel prices at the pump, while Prime Minister Félix Moloua met trade union organisations on 24 September. The discussions notably concern the consequences of soaring global prices, according to Corbeaunews Centrafrique.

Central African Prime Minister Félix Moloua met trade union organisations on 24 September to discuss the consequences of rising global oil prices, as the government considers an adjustment to fuel prices at the pump. No new price has yet been officially set, according to Radio Ndeke Luka.

Élysée Nguémalé, coordinator of the Observatory for Democratic Governance in the Central African Republic (OGDC), believes that the population has no room left to cope with the deterioration in purchasing power. He expressed his opposition to placing further pressure on households in a post published on social media.
