paraffin M6.85 per litre. \u201cThe Petroleum Fund wishes to appeal to all retailers to charge proper prices because it is illegal to charge prices that are different from the gazetted ones,\u201d reads the fund statement in pertinent part. It further warns retailers who will not abide by these newly adjusted prices will have legal action taken against them. One of the motorists who talked to Informative Newspaper, Tsela Noko said<\/p>\n

he is happy with the new prices. He said he will save some money as he will not pay \u201cmuch. \u201d The month of April witnessed arguably sharp decrease of fuel prices with the decrease between M2.05 to M3.00 per litre across the board. They had increased considerably in June and July. The Petroleum Fund is amongst others responsible for stabilizing petroleum products prices and ensuring there is petroleum products supply in the country.<\/p>\n
