Can the traveller remain airside, and under what circumstances must immigration control be crossed?

The route permits a traveller to enter Nigeria before proceeding to the onward destination; it is a transit visa rather than an airside-only route.

What officially documented baggage collection, terminal, separate-ticket or self-transfer situations affect the immigration requirement?

The checked official sources did not provide enough route-specific evidence to confirm the baggage, terminal-change and self-transfer rules.

If permission is required, what permission is it, where/how is it obtained, and what core onward-travel evidence is required?

The permission is this transit visa, applied for online via e-Visa: confirm the final destination's entry requirements are met, upload the visa requirements and pay the visa fees. Core onward-travel evidence: an onward ticket and a visa to the final destination (where applicable), plus evidence of sufficient funds (30 days bank statement).
