Every dataset on data.civic.ng comes from one of the providers below. Trust level reflects institutional standing, not data quality.
The World Bank Group
Free and open access to global development data, including indicators for Nigeria across economy, infrastructure, governance, trade, education, and health.
Notes: Primary multilateral source. Indicator updates typically lag the reference year by several months.
UN OCHA Centre for Humanitarian Data
Open platform for humanitarian data, including IDP movements, conflict events, food security assessments, and operational presence in Nigeria.
Notes: Each dataset on HDX has its own license. Always check the dataset page before redistribution.
UNESCO
Internationally comparable statistics on education, including enrollment, literacy, and learning outcomes for Nigeria.
Notes: Coverage of subnational Nigeria indicators is limited; expect country-level series.
USAID Famine Early Warning Systems Network
Food security analysis and IPC-aligned acute food insecurity classifications for Nigeria, including outlook periods.
Notes: Some embedded inputs (e.g. partner imagery) carry their own licenses. FEWS NET classifications are estimates, not official government figures.
Independent National Electoral Commission
Official electoral authority of Nigeria. Source of polling unit registry, voter registration figures, and election results.
Notes: Official source of election results. Re-publishers should treat INEC declarations as authoritative and clearly attribute.
OpenStreetMap Foundation
Community-edited world map. Nigeria coverage includes roads, buildings, points of interest, and administrative boundaries.
Notes: Community-contributed. Quality varies by region. Always credit OpenStreetMap contributors when redistributing.
Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team
Curated thematic exports from OpenStreetMap, including Nigeria roads, buildings, and waterways for humanitarian and infrastructure use.
Notes: Derivative of OpenStreetMap; the same attribution and share-alike requirements apply.
Code for Africa
Pan-African open data portal hosting community-contributed datasets, including Nigeria-specific civic, governance, and economic data.
Notes: Quality and provenance vary widely. Each dataset must be evaluated individually before reuse.
Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
Macro-economic time series, including Nigeria series sourced from the World Bank, IMF, and other institutional providers.
Notes: FRED is a redistributor. Treat the upstream provider as the authoritative source and respect their terms.
National Bureau of Statistics, Nigeria
Nigeria’s official statistical authority. Publishes GDP, CPI, labor force, and demographic releases.
Notes: Official figures. Redistribution should preserve attribution and reference the original release.
Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project
Disaggregated event-level data on political violence and protest, including Nigeria coverage from 1997 to present.
Notes: Use is governed by ACLED’s terms. Commercial redistribution is restricted; review the license before integrating.

Operational data on internal displacement, returns, and movement intentions in Nigeria, especially the North-East and North-Central.
Notes: Round-based data. Coverage and methodology evolve over time; always cite the round and reference period.
