Inflation Drops To 9.4% In September

 

The year-on-year inflation for September 2025 has dropped significantly, falling from 11.5 percent in August to 9.4 percent.

According to the Ghana Statistical Service, the decline reflects a shift in price dynamics and signals that the country is firmly on the path to macroeconomic stability.

Government Statistician, Dr. Alhassan Iddrisu, explained that the downward trend shows that the pressures which had been driving inflation in recent months are easing.

Food inflation recorded a decline from 14.8 percent in August to 11.0 percent in September.

Non-food inflation also dropped slightly, from 8.7 percent in August to 8.2 percent in September.

Inflation for locally produced items fell from 12.2 percent in August to 10.1 percent in September, while imported items declined from 9.5 percent to 7.4 percent over the same period.

Regionally, the North East Region registered the highest inflation rate at 20.1 percent, more than double the national average, while the Bono East Region recorded the lowest rate at just 1.2 percent.
