Rivers State ranked tenth, with a decrease in headline inflation but a rise in food inflation. Jigawa State saw a slight increase in annual inflation, while Bauchi State experienced a decline, credited to government interventions to control food prices.
Ondo State slipped to seventh place, with a marginal increase in inflation. Gombe State and Sokoto State also saw drops in inflation rates, attributed to agricultural development initiatives.
Adamawa State recorded a significant drop in inflation, thanks to a World Bank agricultural project. These states are making efforts to enhance food production, improve food security, and make living more affordable for residents.
