Questions
What is the Naija Price Index?
It is a weekly snapshot from Cordelia of what everyday things cost in Nigeria: food, fuel, transport, data and more. Each price is the typical (median) shelf price reported by several different people, and the week's biggest risers and fallers are listed.
Where do the prices come from?
From people who report prices they have seen, including Cordelia field agents and public contributors, plus published reference sources where a product has too few live reports. A price only shows when enough different people backed it.
Is this official inflation?
No. It is a record of what contributors saw, not the official consumer price index. Use it as a quick local signal alongside official figures.
Can I quote or republish it?
Yes. It is free to quote if you link back to this page. A one-tap text version for WhatsApp, and an RSS feed, are available on this page.
How often is it updated?
Every Monday morning. The live prices behind it update daily on the Price Board.
