The report said every month, the figure rose by 5.4 per cent from N982 in March.

“The National Average Cost of a Healthy Diet was N1,035 in April 2024. This is 5.4 per cent higher than the amount recorded in the previous month (March 2024, was N982)”, the report said.

Similarly, the report also revealed that Ekiti, Ogun, and Osun states recorded the highest cost with N1, 483, N1,447, and N1,417 respectively. Kogi and Katsina accounted for the lowest costs with N709, followed by Kaduna and Nasarawa with N756 and N769, respectively.
