Why Moses Kuria is under fire over fuel remarks

Investments, Trade, and Industry Cabinet Secretary Moses Kuria told off Kenyans who are complaining about fuel prices to drill their own oil wells. 

In a video shared by Citizen Digital, the CS said the whole world is aware that the prices of crude oil have gone up and it is not a secret. 

"Ukishinda umesema bei ya mafuta imeongezeka kutoka asubuhi mpaka jioni, si uchimbe kisima chako?" he said. 

This is loosely translated to: When you keep on complaining that the prices of fuel have gone up, why don't you just drill your own oil well?
