There is a good reason to worry about the Air Quality in Nigerai, as it ranks 152^th (out of 180 countries) at the Environmental Performance Index for Air Quality.

Furthermore, according to the most recent World Health Organization air pollution database 2016 the air quality in several cities in Nigeria reaches PM_2.5 concentrations from unhealthy to hazardous levels:

City	PM2.5 Conc.	PM2.5 AQI	Health Impact	Year	Meausrement
Aba	373	416	Hazardous	2009	1 station, NA
Abakaliki	88	168	Unhealthy	2009	1 station, NA
Afikpo	72	159	Unhealthy	2009	1 station, NA
Enugu	115	182	Unhealthy	2009	1 station, NA
Ile-Ife	103	175	Unhealthy	2010	1 station, University campus
Kaduna	423	449	Hazardous	2013	2 stations, industrial area
Nnewi	57	151	Unhealthy	2009	1 station, NA
Nsukka	117	183	Unhealthy	2009	1 station, NA
Onitsha	594	500	Hazardous	2009	1 station, NA
Orlu	52	142	Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups	2009	1 station, NA

Public Air Quality Information availability

Unfortunately, there is not any kind of information available from the Federal Ministry of the Environment (www.environment.gov.ng) about Air Quality, whether it relates to a possible monitoring network, or to the actual values recorded by this monitoring network. To our current knowledge, there should most likely not be any kind of automated monitoring network avaiable.

There is unfortunatley, not any information either from the Abuja Environmental Protection Board.

Looking at other Environmental agencies in Nigeria (source),

本网站采用的污染指数和颜色与EPA是完全相同的。 EPA的指数可以从 AirNow上查到

空气质量指数	空气质量指数级别（状况）及表示颜色	对健康影响情况	建议采取的措施
0 - 50	一级（优）	空气质量令人满意，基本无空气污染	各类人群可正常活动
51 -100	二级（良）	空气质量可接受，但某些污染物可能对极少数异常敏感人群健康有较弱影响	极少数异常敏感人群应减少户外活动
101-150	三级（轻度污染）	易感人群症状有轻度加剧，健康人群出现刺激症状	儿童、老年人及心脏病、呼吸系统疾病患者应减少长时间、高强度的户外锻炼
151-200	四级（中度污染）	进一步加剧易感人群症状，可能对健康人群心脏、呼吸系统有影响	儿童、老年人及心脏病、呼吸系统疾病患者避免长时间、高强度的户外锻炼，一般人群适量减少户外运动
201-300	五级（重度污染）	心脏病和肺病患者症状显著加剧，运动耐受力降低，健康人群普遍出现症状	儿童、老年人及心脏病、肺病患者应停留在室内，停止户外运动，一般人群减少户外运动
300+	六级（严重污染）	健康人群运动耐受力降低，有明显强烈症状，提前出现某些疾病	儿童、老年人和病人应停留在室内，避免体力消耗，一般人群避免户外活动
