Nigeria's inflation battle intensifies as the MPC meets to decide on measures to curb rising prices. Key areas include interest rates, currency stability, and food security.

High food prices in Nigeria are placing significant strain on household incomes, exacerbating economic challenges across the country.

Nigerians are feeling the pinch of rising prices, and the Central Bank is taking decisive action.

This comes after two significant interest rate hikes in 2024, pushing the benchmark lending rate to a record 24.75%.
