Consumer Price Index — published change
Inflation & Prices · Source: NBS · monthly
International comparability — CSA: Economic · CPI Manual 2020Nigeria Consumer Price Index published rates of change, monthly, from the National Bureau of Statistics: month-on-month, year-on-year and twelve-month-average change across the composite, urban and rural sub-universes and the COICOP divisions. Published figures are carried as faithful observations because change rates are not recomputable across a rebasing break.

The basket was rebased to 2024=100. A value measured across this point crosses a rebasing and is not directly comparable — the series is not chainable here.
Why this chart?
This series stores a measure × universe × basket cube. A picker lets you read one clean line at a time (default: composite All-Items year-on-year) instead of a 21×41 heatmap of storage format; the full grid is in the table below.
