Nigeria MCP — Nigerian data for AI agents
A Wycord product, built by Braynex Services Ltd. Author: Samuel Orie. License: MIT.
Clean, normalized Nigerian business & local data exposed to AI agents (Claude, Cursor, custom agents) as MCP tools — one server per data source, each behind a typed provider seam.
Status: 12 servers LIVE on npm and on the official MCP Registry. Every server returns live data by default — no env var to set. 10 are keyless; Bank Resolve and Electricity Meter use live data once their free key is set. Without a key they serve built-in sample data, and every such result is labelled [MOCK DATA] so it cannot be mistaken for a real figure. (admin-divisions runs fully offline on a bundled dataset — it has no live data source.)
Products
- Trade Intel — Nigeria import/export statistics by partner, commodity and year, annual or monthly, with USD value (plus CIF/FOB), net weight and quantity, and commodity breakdowns. Plus HS-code classification.
- FX Rates — live Naira rates against USD, EUR and GBP.
- Bank Resolve — resolve a 10-digit NUBAN + bank code to the registered account name; list banks with their codes.
- Electricity Meter — read-only meter validation (customer name/address + DisCo) and the DisCo list. No payments.
- Admin Boundaries — Nigeria admin boundaries (state / LGA / ward): centroid, bounding box, and reverse-geocode a lat/lng point to the admin unit that contains it. GRID3 ArcGIS, keyless.
- Admin Divisions — Nigeria's 36 states + FCT and all 774 LGAs. Runs fully offline on a bundled dataset — no network, no key.
- Health Facilities — find Nigerian health facilities near a point, sorted by distance, with details for a single facility. GRID3 NGA Health Facilities v2.0, keyless.
- World Bank Macro — Nigerian macro indicators (GDP, inflation, population, remittances, FDI, unemployment) from the World Bank Indicators API. Keyless.
- IMF WEO — IMF World Economic Outlook projections for Nigeria (growth, inflation, debt, current account, unemployment) from the IMF DataMapper API. Keyless.
- UN SDG — Nigeria UN SDG indicators (poverty, under-5 mortality, electricity & water access, primary completion) from the UN SDG Global Database. Keyless.
- Crypto Tickers — live crypto tickers in Naira (BTC/NGN etc.), read-only, plus the tradable market list. Quidax public API, keyless.
- Sanctions Screening — screen a name against Nigeria's official NIGSAC sanctions register. A best-effort fuzzy screening signal for human review — not a legal/compliance determination, and it covers the Nigerian list only. Keyless.
Each server's README has full tool docs, examples and a copy-paste config: see lanes/<server>/README.md.
Real-world applications: USE_CASES.md.
Install
One click (Claude Desktop)
Download a bundle from the latest release and double-click it. No terminal, no clone — the bundle carries everything it needs, and the keyed servers prompt you for the free API key during install (leave it blank and they serve labelled sample data).
Or via npx (any MCP client)
No clone needed (Node.js ≥ 20). Add to your MCP config:
Then ask: "What were Nigeria's top crude-oil export partners in 2023?" or "What's the dollar to naira rate right now?"
The keyed servers take their credentials the same way — see lanes/bank-account/README.md (free Paystack key) and lanes/electricity/README.md (free VTpass keys). Without a key these two servers serve built-in sample data, and every result then starts with a [MOCK DATA: ...] text block and carries _meta.dataSource = "mock". To force sample data on any server (for tests or offline work), set its provider variable to mock, for example FX_PROVIDER=mock.
Configuration
No .env file is read. Set a variable in your MCP client's env block (or the shell) only when you need to change a default. Every server works with none of them set; the two keyed servers then serve labelled sample data.
Mock results are never silent: every tool result starts with a [MOCK DATA: ...] text block and carries _meta.dataSource = "mock", and the server prints a warning on stderr at start.
Outbound hosts. Every request goes over https to a host the server declares. A URL override (the *_URL variables) that points at any other host is refused before a request is made.

How it works
Tools never call a provider directly: they depend on a typed interface, so selecting a provider is one env var and adding one is one file. Every request identifies itself with the User-Agent wycord-nigeria-mcp/<version> (+https://wycord.com), and each server reports its real package version in serverInfo. Identity data (account names, meter customer details) is pass-through only — never cached, never logged; API keys travel in headers, never in URLs.
