Government Reduces Fuel Prices to NLe33 and NLe35

29 Jun 2026 • 1 min read • 8,103 views • 13 comments

The Sierra Leone government has approved a reduction in fuel pump prices, effective immediately.

Following a meeting between the government and Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) on Monday, petrol will now sell at NLe33 per litre, while diesel will cost NLe35 per litre.

The new prices represent a reduction of NLe2 on petrol and NLe5 on diesel from the previous rates of NLe35 and NLe40 per litre respectively.

Government announced it will continue to monitor fuel prices and review pump prices as necessary.

The reduction comes amid mounting public pressure for price cuts following the sharp decline in global crude oil prices and weeks of calls from citizens, civil society, and the Sierra Leone Labour Congress for adjustments to reflect international market trends.

I believe that if it were an increase, it would have been Le5 or even Le10 additional; but now, as it is a reduction to benefit the masses, they are dragging their feet. Ooo salone…it’s sad.

Thanks to Mr. Edmond Abu. May God richly bless you and your family. If wasn’t Mr Abu, we would be expecting an increase instead. Sierra Leone government is becoming nuisance to it’s people.
