Nigeria’s Inflation Rate hits 34.8% in December by chisomkachy(op): 2:27pm On Jan 15, 2025
Nigeria’s annual inflation rate rose to 34.80 per cent in December 2024 from 34.60 per cent in November, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said on Wednesday.

This marks a continuation of the upward trend observed in September 2024, when the nation recorded a reversal of a two-month decline.

The statistics office said the December 2024 headline inflation rate showed a marginal increase of 0.20 per cent compared to the November 2024 headline inflation rate.

This, it said, was due to December festive period increases in demand for goods and services.

The statistics office said the December 2024 headline inflation rate showed a marginal increase of 0.20 per cent compared to the November 2024 headline inflation rate.

This, it said, was due to December festive period increases in demand for goods and services.

On a year-on-year basis, the NBS said the headline inflation rate was 5.87 per cent higher than the rate recorded in December 2023 (28.92 per cent).

“This shows that the headline inflation rate (year-on-year basis) increased in December 2024 compared to the same month in the preceding year (i.e., December 2023),” it said.

On the contrary, the bureau said on a month-on-month basis, the headline inflation rate in December 2024 was 2.44 per cent, which was 0.20 per cent lower than the rate recorded in November 2024 (2.64 per cent).

“This means that in December 2024, the rate of increase in the average price level is slightly lower than the rate of increase in the average price level in November 2024,” the report added.

According to the report, the food inflation rate in December 2024 was 39.84 per cent on a year-on-year basis, 5.91 per cent points higher compared to the rate recorded in December 2023 (33.93 per cent).

This Yoruba, the so called sophisticated tribe, are now busy taking the country backwards. During the time of Muhammadu Buhari many same people criticizing his government for lack of vision are now praising their kinsmen for taking Nigeria 40 years backwards

When the tax reform bill is passed, we will overcome inflation problems in Lagos. Not because increase in VAT does not increase inflation but because more allocation will create more jobs leading to productivity which will reduce inflation.

Yet APC miscreants were shouting detty December. Of what use is a holiday when over 90% of average citizens cannot afford to celebrate it.

Nigerians in diaspora who came back home to celebrate could easily do so because they aren't working here. If they were working in Nigeria, their salary wouldn't even be enough to buy a bag of rice.

By the special grace of God.
Lagos State, being Nigeria's economic hub, plays a crucial role in the country's production landscape. Increasing allocations to this region would boost production capacity, thereby helping to curb inflationary pressures in the country at large.

Nigerias economy is dangling on a Yoyo.

We have a first class accountant that a secondary school leavers can do better than.

Truth is seen as hate speech and cyber bullying.

They just want everyone to be like nairaland 30k propagandists that swallows every shit.

Lol...it is obvious you know nothing about economics.


Go back to those who wasted money on your education(if at all you had any) and give them a refund of all the money they wasted + a strong written and publicly broadcasted national apology

Prices of things have continued rising irrespective of food harvest. They are seriously lying.

The easiest way to burst this lie is by checking threads where merchants sell their grains on Nairaland, Agriculture section. Beans of N1000 per measure is now around N2,500 yet they are saying year-on-year inflation from December 2023 to December 2024 was 34%. Lets see the formula and inputs then.
Re: Nigeria’s Inflation Rate hits 34.8% in December by MichaelSokoto(m): 3:47pm On Jan 15, 2025

Cup of beans sold less than #50 per cup b4 the demonic APC took power in 2015 is now #650 per cup!
