Experts Forecast Further Easing of Nigeria's Inflation in September 2025

Analysts anticipate a continued decline in Nigeria's inflation rate in September 2025, driven by a stronger naira, improved food supply, and stable energy costs. Experts caution that while the trend is positive, inflationary pressures may persist in certain sectors due to high logistics costs and seasonal demand ahead of the festive period.

Despite the Central Bank of Nigeria's tight policy stance, inflation is expected to slow down, with the potential for a turnaround as the exchange rate improves and supply conditions sustain. Various experts like Jessica Ifada and Olumayowa Bolujoko are optimistic about the inflation slowdown, attributing it to factors like moderate food inflation and stable energy prices.

Abigael Kazeem Adesina also highlights the role of harvest output and absence of significant energy price hikes in controlling consumer prices.
