The prices of basic food items consumed in Kenya went up by the highest annual rate in two-and-a-half years in March with sifted maize flour leading in the increase.
Latest data from the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) shows that food inflation for March stood at 11.9 per cent, the highest since August 2017’s 13.5 per cent, which was in the midst of a disruptive General Election.
