Nigeria Inflation Rate MoM
Nigeria's month-over-month inflation rate fell to 0.74% in August 2025. This is the lowest rate since February 2019's 0.73%. The previous month, July 2025, saw inflation at 1.99%. This slowdown resulted from moderating food inflation due to lower staple prices from the harvest season and a stronger Naira easing price pressures. Base effects from the CPI base year change also contributed. Nigeria's record low Inflation Rate MoM was -3.5% in August 1999 and record high was 10.7% in January 2025.
