“This means that in November 2024, the rate of increase in the average price level is slightly lower than the rate of increase in the average price level in October 2024.”

The Bureau also noted that the food inflation rate in November 2024 was 39.93 per cent on a year-on-year basis, seven per cent higher than the 32.84 per cent rate recorded in November 2023.

“The rise in Food inflation on a year-on-year basis was caused by increases in prices of the following items; Yam, Water Yam, Coco Yam, etc (Potatoes, Yam & Other Tubers Class), Guinea Corn, Maize Grains, Rice, etc (Bread and Cere-als Class), Beer, Pinto (Tobacco Class), and Palm Oil, Vegetable Oil, etc (Oil and Fats Class),” NBS said.

However, on a month-on-month basis, the bureau said the food inflation rate in November 2024 was 2.98 per cent, indicating a 0.05 per cent points increase compared to the 2.94 per cent rate recorded in October 2024.

For state analysis, the Bureau said the food inflation rate rose the highest in Bauchi (46.21 per cent), Kebbi (42.41 per cent), and Anambra (40.48 percent).

Other states like Delta (26.47 per cent), Benue (28.98 per cent), and Katsina (29.57 per cent) spent the lowest on food in November on a year-on-year basis.

The NBS reported that Yobe (5.14 per cent), Kebbi (5.10 per cent), and Anambra (4.88 per cent) experienced the highest month-on-month food inflation, while Adamawa (0.95 per cent), Osun (1.12 per cent), and Kogi (1.29 per cent) saw the slowest increases.

“The rise is attributed to the rate of increase in the average prices of Mudfish, Catfish Dried, Dried Fish Sadine, etc (Fish Class), Rice, Yam Flour, Millet Whole grain, Corn flour, etc (Bread and Cereals Class), Agric Egg, Powered Milk, Fresh Milk, etc (Milk, cheese and eggs Class) and Dried Beef, Goat Meat, Frozen Chicken, etc (Meat Class),” the Bureau said.
