The Minister of Finance, Wale Edun has stated that inflation in Nigeria is declining.
This is as he disclosed that the Tinubu government plans to continue the trajectory of downward inflation.
Edun made this statement in his remarks at the National Economic Dialogue 2024 organised by the Nigerian Economic Summit Group in Abuja on Wednesday.

According to him, the government will do everything to ensure more availability of food at affordable prices for Nigerians.
Edun said ,”Democracy may not be the only form in which to organise a society, but I think all of us agree that it is the best.
“And it’s always a work in progress, trying to improve our democracy. And, indeed, today’s dialogue is an effort in that direction.
“Overall, inflation has started coming down. And we are planning on maintaining that trajectory of downward inflationary trend and overall reduction in food inflation.
“More availability of food at affordable prices is the goal of the administration in the immediate term,” he added.
