JUST IN: Nigeria’s headline inflation falls to 15.43% in July

Nigeria's headline inflation rate fell to 15.43 percent in July 2026, a 0.48 percentage-point decline from 15.91 percent in June. The July figure marked a significant 9.51 percentage-point reduction year-on-year, compared to 24.94 percent in July 2025. Despite the overall Consumer Price Index (CPI) increase from 143.0 to 145.3 points, the decline in the inflation rate suggests that the pace of price increases slowed in July.
