What data is expected?
Aggregate data about the emission of air pollutants especially those potentially harmful to human health (although it is not a requirement to include information on green house gas emissions). Aggregate means national-level or more detailed and on an annual basis or better. Standard examples of relevant pollutants would be: carbon monoxides, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter etc.

Details
The data is not the official. The Official data should be on National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency(NOSDRA) http://nosdra.gov.ng/ but presently they do not have a data portal.
In 2014, NOSDRA released a map data of oil spills in the country at https://oilspillmonitor.ng/ however, overall pollutants emission monitoring is the responsibility of NESREA (National Environmental Standards & Regulation Enforcement Agency) which has its website at http://www.nesrea.gov.ng/ , unfortunately, it does not have a data portal
