 Uganda's annual inflation rates for the year end in May dropped to 1.9% from 2.1% recorded in the year end in April. The Uganda Bureau of Statistics, UBOS, said that the drop was mainly attributed to a decrease in food and non-alcoholic beverages and their prices amongst other reasons. However, annual core inflation for the year end in May increased to 3.1% compared to 2.9% in April, which is attributed to the annual services inflation. Meanwhile, the UBOS also said it had a new consumer price index calculation, which is in conformity with internationally accepted practices as well as original trade blocks.
