This would hopefully spread around the nation.

Despite the national slowdown, state-level data show wide variations. On a year-on-year basis in January 2026, Kogi recorded the highest food inflation at 19.84%, followed by Benue at 18.38% and Adamawa at 17.29%.

Propaganda from the pit of hell, yet Helinus and Yarrimo are still hungry.

Meanwhile where is Manabbqgrill?

Let me explain this propaganda with a simple Math:

Let’s say 1 Tin tomato sells for N1,000 this month Feb, the next month March it sells for N1,100. The food inflation is 10% between Feb and March.

April it sells for N1,150. Between March and April, the food inflation is now 5%.

We can say that the food inflation between Feb and April dropped by 5%.

This doesn’t mean the price of Tin Tomato dropped, it is still rising, but the rate at which it is rising reduced.

Why is this explanation important? Because before this evil government came to power, the month to month food inflation wasn’t jumping to outrageous numbers, so there’s no way it will reduce by that much percentage.

This evil Agbadorian government as usual is trying to use a bad thing to confuse people that it is working, but they’re only deceiving themselves

Slow, steady with consistency

Imagine that this development news that supposed to elevate every Nigerians but some people would still be sad about it. Unfortunately

You be olodo, how does 1100 to 1150 means inflation dropped by 5%? It means it increased by 5% according to your analyst.
But in this case, let's assume it was 1000, it has reduced to 950... That's when it reduced by 5%

You go explain tire.

If it's the lowest in 14 years, then food prices should be less than Jonathan era or the same as Jonathan era. Since its not, then this is paper statistics
