Our current holdings in Nigerian localization can be found on our Pootle server.

Yoruba
https://translate.sugarlabs.org/yo/

Igbo
https://translate.sugarlabs.org/ibo/

The vast majority of these translations have been committed to their
respective Github repos,  to the extent that new versions of those
activities have been released since those commits, the translations
are now present in ASLO.

The core UI strings (sugar, sugar-toolkit-gtk3, OLPC_switch_laptop)
have also been committed, but to get them visible to users a new build
will be required.  That would either be a new SOAS build or possibly a
custom build as proposed by Laura.
