Sources & verification:
- High-level share figure: FAO Forest Products Statistics. FAOSTAT reports wood-fuel volumes in cubic metres and charcoal in metric tonnes.
- Direct annual wood-fuel volume time series for Nigeria is available from FAOSTAT — Forestry: Production and Trade. The interactive database supports Nigeria-specific queries 1961–present, but the table itself was not retrieved during this scrape (FAOSTAT requires per-query parameter selection).
- Data limited. To populate this page authoritatively, query FAOSTAT-Forestry "Wood Fuel" element for Nigeria and transcribe the annual rows.
