You might want to do your research.   Nigeria is considered a high risk destination by most countries travel advisories.

I used to travel quite often to Nigeria and the security precautions were quite stringent. 

But then again it varies depending on your lifestyle and what precautions you adopt.  Just be mindful that corruption is rampant, infrastructure is bad and the police forces woefully inadequate.
