Why this chart?

127 breakdowns over 29 periods — too many for one readable chart, so each gets its own small panel on the same scale.

Chosen: Small multiples · 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 — geography, period, value, unit and source — and reconstruct the whole series.

Focus on the measure or breakdown you want, read it as a trend, the full matrix, or a tidy row-per-observation table, and download exactly the slice on screen. The chart above and this table share one selection — change a control in either and both move together.
