This was revealed at the sensitisation workshop on GDP and CPI rebasing organised by the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG) and the NBS in Lagos on Thursday.

The head of Price Statistics at the NBS, Dr. Ayo Andrew, in his presentation said, “Apart from our normal headline inflation, core inflation, food inflation; the basics, we are going to include in the new CPI rebased that will be released this January another index that has never been released before.

“Number one is the services index. At what rate are the prices of services in Nigeria increasing? People want to know about (those figures) in education and transport.

“NBS will bring that on board by the end of this month. Also energy index, at what rate is price fluctuating in this sector?
