South Korea inflation climbs to 3.1%, fueling rate-hike speculation — 15hSouth Korea’s August inflation rebounded to 3.1%, lifted by a base effect from last year’s telecom discount and broadening core price gains as living-cost pressures persist, with food and service costs contributing to the upswing and potentially influencing the central bank’s policy stance. In Pakistan, inflation also rose to 11.1% in August, driven mainly by higher food and energy prices and a sharp surge in transport costs after petroleum price revisions, with the central bank maintaining a high policy rate to curb price pressures.

Tom Gallagher Base effects aside, food and service prices climbing again means real relief for households isn't coming anytime soon.

On X · @davidoDavido Comments on Davrel’s Family Wealth in Quote of Music Group PostDavido (@davido) quoted a video post by Davreltv (@davrel99) promoting “DAVREL MUSIC GROUP,” writing in Nigerian Pidgin: “And ur mom owns that building … y dem no go hate u 😂 ur in for a ride …” (roughly: “And your mom owns that building… why wouldn’t they hate you? You’re in for a ride”).

It is trending due to Davido’s massive following, the light jab at privilege (“nepo” vibes), and fans interpreting it as the star inserting himself into younger artists’ drama, generating hundreds of replies/quotes and high views.2,500 likes · 21m
