Government of Sierra Leone Set to Announce New Fuel Prices on Today

The National Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NPRA), in collaboration with relevant government ministries, is expected to announce new pump prices for petrol, diesel, and kerosene on Monday.
The anticipated announcement follows months of government fuel subsidies, which have reportedly cost the state approximately US$4.7 million.
On April 2, 2026, the government set petrol at NLe35 per litre and diesel at NLe40 per litre, subsidising NLe1.10 per litre on petrol and NLe4.26 per litre on diesel. By late April, the NPRA revealed monthly subsidy costs had reached an estimated US$2.6 million.
Without subsidies, officials said petrol would cost NLe37 per litre and diesel NLe44 per litre.
