President Muhammadu Buhari’s performance approval rating has risen to 55 percent, a survey conducted by NOI Polls has shown.

According to the survey, Buhari’s rating rose five percent from the 50 percent recorded last month.

The rise has been attributed to a recent reduction in the prices of goods and services, improved security and a slight improvement in the economy, The Guardian reports.

The rating increased across the six geo-political zones with the North-East zone having the highest proportion.

The rise is also believed to have been sparked by the Central Bank’s policy intervention on foreign exchange which has further improved the value of the Naira in the global market.
