The National Bureau of Statistics, NBS, said Benue, Delta, and Borno states are the least expensive states to live in Nigeria.

NBS July’s Consumer Price Index and Inflation Data released on Thursday showed that Benue, Delta and Borno recorded the slowest rise in Headline Inflation on a year-on-year basis.

Benue’s headline inflation stood at 27.28 percent, Delta, 28.06 percent and Borno 28.33 percent on a year-on-year basis.

On a month-on-month basis, Taraba, 0.17 percent, Kwara, 0.62 percent and Ondo 0.91 percent recorded the slowest headline inflation rise.

In contrast, Abuja 3.91 percent, Borno, 3.84 percent and Enugu 3.76 percent recorded the highest increases.

DAILY POST earlier reported that, according to data released by NBS, Nigeria’s headline inflation fell to 33.90 percent in July, the first time a drop has been recorded since 2022, when it stood at 21.34 percent.

Similarly, NBS reported that reduction in the prices of garri, fufu and others pushed food inflation to drop in July to 39.53 percent from 40.87 percent in June.

Borno is "affordable" because muslim terrorists have either killed or kidnapped everyone there. Nonsense.

Borno and Benue ke? Are these folks serious? Cost of living cheap in the two places were life dey cheap too with kidnappings and killings dey high-- insecurity dey high. Na wa oo!

Experience has revealed that Nigeria statistic is not always a good representation of reality on ground..

I'm shocked that Borno is so expensive to live in. Earlier this year I was in maiduguri, hotel lodgings were so damn expensive. I asked why and I was told that many of these NGOs (esp foreign) will just book 5 rooms in a hotel and pay 2 years upfront and may not even stay in it frequently.

eiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Delta??

Delta State? They should be specific of the parts of the states because Warri and Asaba is expensive. Asaba is no longer for an average man. Loi loi way dey resemble egg.

Yeeeee.......

Living in the rural areas of most states is more affordable than urban regions

Huuuu. Reno Omonkey will see this failure as a success because his brain has gotten maggots from bribery.This is not a success in any way.

You voted a BLOCK HEAD,

He is suffering you from that day you voted him,

But you are still celebrating him in your suffering and also attacking someone who doesn't have a hand in your suffering.


My dear look for the mountain of fire and miracles church nearest to you for a good spiritual help.


🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Delta how? Then was the saying fulfilled which said "na statistics we go chop?"

Are Osun, Oyo, Ondo, Ogun, Ekiti jokes to you?
Come to these states they don't know what's inflation. Stuffs are dirt cheap. No ebi n pawa here.
Everywhere soft.
Ewa agoyin with bread N250
Amala and Ewedu N300
Garri with melon soup N200
Tea and bread N150
Rice and stew with meat N300
Rice and strew without N200

God be with my S/W states. The best decision ever made by us was installing Jagaban!

Jagaban till 2051

Asaba is extremely expensive. But I don't know of other parts of the state

Please take note ''I'm shocked that Borno is so expensive to live in''.
There's difference between the Least & Most expensive.
With all due respect, consult your dictionary.

yes most definitely. We Yoruba people envy u guys a lot. How u people do it and live lavishly in the midst of hunger is something we need to studiy

wrong statistics... Delta is not all that they described

Not surprised about Ilorin though, lived there in my formative years and it's about the most peaceful place to live in this country, problem is it's a civil servants state, businesses don't thrive much but you get a bang for the little you have in of living costs, so the trick is make money elsewhere and go spend it there

CodeTemplar:
Delta??

e shock you too abi

I still wonder how or why national policies affect some States more than the others. Well, that is a discussion for another day

BTW:

President Tinubu's campaign theme centered on RENEWED HOPE; only for him to begin his istration with a bad news by announcing fuel subsidy removal. His trial-by-error policies have now made the 36 States IDP Camps.

It's one of the cheapest states to live in Nigeria

Absolutely wrong, a room and parlor self contained in Ugbolu is going for 350,000 , this is a village in Delta state o! Go to Oleh and check the cost of a self contained it almost the same at what you have as a room and parlor self contained in Ugbolu. Funny enough there are limited job opportunities.
