Comment: “The guys, I agree that we can panic the beat figures and Brandish anyway in Nigeria, but the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) in its ICC April 2025 included this non-responsibility clause” in the analysis of price movements under this section to the other, it should be noted that the IPC is balanced by an impact by an impact on an impact on an impact on an impact Particular food or not of the State, consequently, the intervention as signed in a particular or not-food or not of the State, consequently, the intervention as signed in a particular food or non-food, which can differ from the State, which is signed in a particular or non-food or non-food. Comparisons of consumer baskets not recommended and potentially misleading. “It was a response on the part where I asked the National Bureau of Statistics to check its latest inflation data.
My answer: The absence of evidence is not proof of the absence. A warning does not solve the problem because the very fact that these states are published together, most readers will think that the basic reference is the same. But where they are not, it is the work of NBS of all-rate, to compensate for the variances in the basic lines, if these states were placed on the same table.
Simply, you should explain why Ekiti (34% inflation) and OGUN (~ 10%) states have this level of deviation with or without warning. Understand that economics is a social science, but it is nevertheless “science”. So putting a warning does not solve the problem. I do not buy your explanation as long as someone can explain how homogeneous economic states like Ekiti and Ogun could be attributed to the appointment of the gap.

Respectfully, you cannot use “warning” to cover the laziness. It’s like the montage disorder. When the results were published, I noted that I did not believe in the results and avoided castigating our young people. For what? Over the past two decades, the States of Lagos, Anambra, Omi and Abia have always surpassed the amount. So when Jamb published what this mess, I rejected it because it made no meaning, looking at the historical data!
Later, I argued that even if Jamb could have technical problems or poor software, as he claimed, the fact that his statisticians approved these results is a validation that they did not apply for statistics, after the exam. In other words, when a center of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, recorded 100% failure, despite his previous great records, no human there, he does not care to understand why?
Thus, in the large scheme, the biggest failure of the ham is not the problem of the software, but the fact that they approved the garbage as “results” without anyone knowing that it was waste. It is in this spirit that I want someone to explain how the states of Ekiti and OGUN could record the inflation data during parade at the moment with the two published together, which means that citizens assume similar basic lines. A warning is not an answer!
National Nigeria Statistics Bureau, check your inflation calculation again
