With the core mandate of ensuring low and stable prices, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) seems to be losing its grip on achieving this fundamental objective as Nigeria’s inflation story repeatedly frustrates the apex bank’s efforts. According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), current inflation figures depict a contentious realisation in the country’s inflation drama, as general price levels continue to follow a double-digit trend, far away from the targeted zones. The index of consumer prices (CPI), which measures the percentage change in the price of over 700 goods and services consumed by Nigerians daily, stands at 15.63% as of December 2021. Compared to a month before, CPI recorded a lower rate of 15.40%. This means that inflation in the country worsened by 0.23% in just 30 days. Hence, during the just-concluded Yuletide period, Nigerians had to part with 0.23% more from their income, on average, if they must enjoy the Christmas and New Year celebrations. Elevated rates in the index of consumer prices have been majorly faulted on rising food prices in response to accelerated demand during the festivities, the CBN has mentioned.
