  1. Middle East conflict slows Nigeria's falling inflation World Bank finds

    Nigeria's reform-driven economic gains are being tested by geopolitical forces beyond its borders, as a World Bank report lays out both the progress made and the pressures that remain.

  2. Headline inflation slows for a fourth month, but food prices tell a different story

    The composite index eased to 21.4 per cent while the food sub-index moved in the opposite direction.
