Ghana's consumer inflation rises to 17.2 pct in Sept

ACCRA (Reuters) - Ghana's annual consumer price inflation rises to 17.2 percent in September from 16.9 percent in August, the statistics office said on Wednesday. Inflation is politically sensitive ahead of what is expected to be a tight presidential election in December, in which President John Mahama will run for a second and final four-year term in office.
