why nigeria economy inflation is increasing
The economy of Nigeria is not what economist will describe in true sense as ECONOMY.
Nigeria produces almost nothing what we thought is production is no production as some few companies buy some parts from international market and couple them together. Take some soap manufacturing companies as example they buy almost 100% of the chemicals from foreign market and mix them together to produce their soap . This is how most companies in Nigeria operates.
For a country to have stable prices they must produce locally . For example the soap manufacturers like other companies must source at least 70% of their raw materials locally which will generate economic activities in the economy that makes for abundance in production and create stable prices.

I heard it said that Brexit might lead to a 40% drop in trade and a corresponding 2-3% drop in average incomes. As GDP grows annually by about 2% in normal times, it seems that the cost of leaving the EU would be just 2 years’ growth (if GDP growth can be used as a proxy for average incomes). This seems very modest but is it true? Also it seems remarkable that a near halving of trade has such a modest effect.
In the same vein, I have seen it written that climate change might lead to a few, maybe 5, percent drop in GDP by 2100 (estimates vary). Again this implies we will reach a particular level of prosperity only a few years later than without climate change.
There’s much more involved in Brexit (about which I’m agnostic) and climate change (about which I worry) than purely these numbers, but the numbers alone seem poor justification for policy. Am I wrong?
