Hi, Mateusz:

Kano state (North Nigeria) [1], specially the Southern half, is
heavily mapped, an the huge majority of unpaved roads are marked as
unpaved. Plus, you have many trunk and primary and secondary in that
are marked as paved/asphalt.

Federal roads (F.XXX) are all tagged as primary, although some of them
have legs that are unpaved, with smoothness that can be horrible. You
can get a look for example to F.128 federal road [2].

Might you consider rendering the ford=yes? It's very common in Africa
for example.

Cheers,

Rafael.
