“On the other hand, Annual Inflation Rate for all items without Food and Non-Alcoholic Beverages for October, 2022 has decreased to 3.3% from 3.5% recorded in September, 2022,” the statement added.

The National Consumer Price Index for October, 2022 is 108.73 as it was recorded in September,

2022.

“Stagnation of index is a result of increase or decrease of prices for some food items and non-food items between the two periods,” NBS said.
