Ghana\u2019s inflation rate has hit a two-decade high of 54.1 per cent before a recent decrease.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dTurkey\u2019s rate is 45 per cent, Pakistan has also reported an alarming high inflation rate comparable to countries with similar profiles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He maintained that the war in Ukraine had since translated into a rocketing in foodstuff prices leading to fear of famine in many countries.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dWhile Nigeria\u2019s reported inflation rate of 22 per cent is undoubtedly high and worrisome, it would be incorrect to suggest that the Buhari administration is not making efforts to address the volatile global cost of living crisis,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Shehu affirmed that the administration had consistently prioritised efforts to control inflation and would continue to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Presidency says the high inflation in the country is a world-wide problem which no nation is immune to following the global economic downturn and the COVID-19 pandemic.
