The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) reported that Nigeria's headline inflation rate declined to 14.63 per cent in September 2026 from 15.39 per cent in August 2026. This represents the third consecutive monthly decrease since June. The NBS attributed the decline to a further easing in the core basket. On a year-on-year basis, the rate was 6.35 percentage points lower than the 20.98 per cent recorded in September 2025.
