Ghana’s inflation rose sharply to 5.30% in June 2026, from 3.70% in May, as rising non-food prices became the main source of renewed pressure on household budgets.
The latest data from the Ghana Statistical Service showed that while inflation remains far below the 13.70% recorded in June 2025, the month-on-month increase points to a fresh build-up in selected price categories after several months of moderation.
The Consumer Price Index rose to 270.80 in June, compared with 257.30 in the same period last year.
On a month-on-month basis, however, inflation slowed to 0.20%, down from 1.10% in May, suggesting that although prices are still rising year-on-year, the pace of monthly price increases moderated during June.
