Nigeria’s Inflation Rises To 20%, Passes World Bank Projection

Nigeria’s inflation rate has risen to 20 percent above the World Bank’s projection of 15.5 percent, despite the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) raising the country’s interest rate.

Recall that the World Bank had in a recent report titled ‘Nigeria Development Update (June 2022): The Continuing Urgency of Business Unusual,’ projected that Nigeria’s inflation rate was going to be higher than it had anticipated and would hit 15.5 per cent.

The latest inflation figure from the National Bureau of Statistics, released on Friday, showed that the nation’s inflation rose to 18.60 per cent in June, the highest since January 2017 when it was 18.72 per cent.

“This means that the headline inflation rate increased in the month of June 2022 when compared to the same month in the previous year (i.e., June 2021). Increases were recorded in all COICOP divisions that yielded the Headline index.

“On a month-on-month basis, the headline inflation rate increased to 1.82 per cent in June 2022, this is 0.03 per cent higher than the rate recorded in May 2022 (1.78 per cent).”

According to the statistics body, urban inflation rose to 19.09 per cent and rural inflation hit 18.13 per cent in June 2022. This is despite the recent interest rate increase by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
