Nigeria     Bring enough funds for your stay and your return. Bank transfers take time.       Take care of your passport at all times. Travel with a photocopy of your passport and keep it separate from your passport.       Be vigilant when sitting in traffic jams particularly on bridges. Lock car doors and close windows at all times. Do not resist if confronted by armed robbers.       Register at the British Deputy High Commission if resident in Nigeria. If visiting for more than 3 months your details will be entered on their database. If less than 3 months your details will be held until departure.       Ensure that you are met at the airport on arrival.       Leave money with friends/relatives in the UK to be transferred to Nigeria in an emergency.       Ensure that someone in the UK is aware of your travel plans and advise them when you have reached your destination safely.     Enter next of kin details into the back of your passport.       Don't leave home without travel insurance. Ensure that it covers medical treatment, including medical evacuation to the UK, and unexpected losses/expenses (eg missing flight, losing passport, stolen cash or credit cards). Robberies are a high occurrence in Nigeria.       Don’t get involved with drugs. Penalties can be severe.       Don’t let go of your luggage at Nigerian airports and public places. Report all losses as soon as possible at the nearest police station and obtain a police report.       Don’t swim in the ocean. Currents are very strong.       Don't use public transport and beware of driving conditions in Nigeria. Taxis and buses are poorly maintained.       Don’t travel outside cities after dark.       Don’t use credit cards. Fraud is very common in Nigeria.       Don't enter the country on a visitor's visa and then work. Nigerian immigration is very strict with visitors who work in the country.
