Transport index declined by 0.2% due to the “marginal reduction” of diesel prices and public transport.

Housing, Water, Electricity, Gas and other fuels index rose by 0.82% due to a rise in electricity prices – which were up 10.3%

Food prices have increased by 20.3% in March 2012, compared to March 2011, according to the National Statistics Bureau.

Food & Non-alcoholic drinks index was up 2.4%, “mainly due to rise in prices of milk, potatoes, kales tomatoes and onions”

Never under estimate CBs manipulation powers. These guys are hell bent to force the rate below 10% come what may... Makofi for a 'good job' done. The cooking (fudging) of figures must continue to flush out guys from tbills so that money can be printed as CBR gets lowered.
Later we will see the liar (purchasing power or wage inflation - labour wars) exposed again.
A deer caught up in head lamps moment is coming soon. The leaking will start again with USDKES...
$15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

And let nobody forget the treasury loan of 50 - 60 billion of forex loans by some beloved banks. As well as some chunk coming from IMF in April.

I,l start listening to what The main man at Equity says...in one of those t.v interviews he assured that inflation figures will drop significantly in the coming months...but for real what is supporting this drop?food prices have edged higher,rains that were proffesed to start in early March by the Met department are nowhere to be seen even areas that are traditionally green all year round are dry...from the CNN weather centre there is a prediction of a severe drought in parts of the E.African region Kenya included;things might be thick going forward...

Highly unlikely that the CBK is manipulating figures..KNBS is the custodian of govt statistics (it calculates inflation) and is independent of CBK. Shame on you i know you know that.

your other points i concur.

Though other than oil, most commodities we import have come off significantly & also the effect of stable rains on fresh produce must be acknowledged ;-)
