Why this chart?
A choropleth encodes one variable over geography; this series also splits by state, so the map carries a selector for it rather than collapsing the second dimension. The state breakdown is sparse or barely varies, so only the national overall (population-weighted, never summed from the states) is shown — a map would mislead more than it informs.
Chosen: Choropleth map with a selector · auto-selected from the data profile.
Figures are in nominal naira — the amounts as reported for each period, not adjusted for inflation. Over a multi-year span, part of any increase reflects rising prices rather than real growth.
Both downloads carry every observation — state, period, value, unit and source — and reconstruct the whole series.
