Kenya National Bureau of Statistics hereby releases the monthly Consumer Price Indices (CPI) and rates of inflation, for June, 2020. The overall year on year inflation in June 2020 stood at 4.59 per cent compared to a revised inflation rate of 5.33 per cent recorded in May 2020. The CPI decreased by 0.31 per cent from 108.60 in May 2020 to 108.27 in June 2020.
