Data Sources

Every figure on this platform traces back to one of three official public institutions. No estimates, no third-party resellers — primary sources only.

The Aggregation at a Glance — every indicator, every year

One picture of the whole platform: each row is one of the 122 indicators, each column a year from 1960 to 2026, and each cell glows brighter the more observations were aggregated for that indicator in that year. The dense modern block on the right is the 2020–2026 case-study core; the long thin rows reaching back left are the deep historical series (GDP sectors to 1981, CBN financials to 1960). Hover any cell for the detail.
