What this value means
Latest headline YoY on the named GSS page, newer than live July 2026 4.6 (effective_from 2026-07-01). Same figure on https://www.statsghana.gov.gh/ ('Inflation(YoY) 5.2% September 2026 +0.2 pp vs August 2026') and on banner /images/banner/newcpi0926.png ('September Inflation Rate 5.2%'). The highlight page links a 'September 2026 CPI-Bulletin' PDF via a client-rendered search; the bulletin file itself was not downloaded. August 2026 (5.0%, implied by the +0.2 pp card) is not the latest month.
