The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has released the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) and inflation data for December 2025, showing a decrease in the country’s inflation rate. According to the report, Nigeria’s inflation rate dropped to 15.15% in December 2025, down from 17.33% in November 2025 .
– The CPI rose to 131.2 in December 2025, up by 0.7 points from the previous month (130.5).
– Food inflation declined by 1.49% to 10.84% in December, down from 11.08% in November.
– On a year-on-year basis, food inflation eased from 39.84% in December 2024.
– The December 2025 year-on-year headline inflation rate was 19.65% lower than the rate recorded in December 2024 (34.80%) .
The decrease in inflation rate is expected to bring some relief to Nigerians, particularly in terms of food prices. The NBS report attributed the decline in food inflation to lower prices of staples such as tomatoes, garri, eggs, beans, vegetables, and grains.
The NBS’s latest report indicates a significant decrease in Nigeria’s inflation rate, which could have a positive impact on the country’s economy. However, it’s essential to note that the inflation rate is still high, and the government needs to continue implementing policies to stabilize prices and improve the standard of living for Nigerians.
