opennaijR
laws2020.github.io/opennaijRNigeria's official economic data, one command away for any analyst.
what it does
opennaijR is a free, open-source package for the R statistical language. It gives researchers clean, instant access to data from the Central Bank of Nigeria, the National Bureau of Statistics, and the Nigerian Exchange: discover a dataset, download it, and get analysis-ready tables in seconds instead of hours of manual cleaning.
why it matters
Bad data access quietly taxes every Nigerian economist, journalist, student, and policy analyst. Open infrastructure like this raises the quality of research about the country itself, and signals serious technical depth inside the community.
where it can grow
A Python version would multiply its reach several-fold. Institutional adoption (universities, research desks, newsrooms) would cement it as national research infrastructure.
