Nigeria's headline inflation rate over the twelve-month period under review shows
a steady decline in price pressures across the economy. Inflation stood at  27.6°k in January 2025, fluctuated lightly in the early months, and then began a consistent downward trend through the rest of the year. By the end of the final quarter of 2025, inflation  had  fallen to 19.0%  in October,  17.3%  in  November, and 15.1%  in December, before remaining at 15.1°kin January 2026. These changes represent a significant fall in headline inflation rate this year compared to the same period of last year. Overall, the  sustained decline suggests improving price stability in the economy, reflecting  slower  increases  in  the  average  price  level of  goods  and   services 
consumed my households.
