Ahead of the official release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), financial analysts expect Nigeria’s headline inflation to post a marginal decline in June 2025, following a print of 22.97% in May.
Most projections place June inflation between 22.0% and 22.8%, driven by base effects, relative foreign exchange (FX) stability, and seasonal food supply adjustments.
However, the outlook is tempered by sticky food inflation, persistent insecurity, and demand pressures.
