The Togolese government has earmarked CFA25 billion in fuel subsidies for 2025 to help lower petroleum product prices and ease cost-of-living pressures. The subsidies will reduce pump prices by up to CFA233 per litre for different fuel types, beginning with cuts implemented late last year.
Domestic gas will also receive nearly CFA9.6 billion in support to boost household purchasing power. Officials say the measure aims to shield consumers from global price volatility. Parliament approved the allocations as part of broader economic planning. The move reflects ongoing efforts to stabilise key commodity prices. Togo’s strategy includes balancing economic support with fiscal sustainability. This initiative is widely seen as vital for inflation relief among households.
