Some good info there about Nigeria in the SCAMS and SAFETY sections but if you say the wrong thing they'll start calling you a muppet.

John Browning about a decade ago, I was being head-hunted for refinery construction work over there.
The pay that they were offering was incredible (particularly given the exchange rate, and the banking options that they were offering).
I wasn't too fussed with the way that the locals were being treated, and the security aspect of it.

Off topic a bit but my wife's father worked for Mobil oil, now XOM and they were offered a good package to go to Saudi Arabia. Didn't take it. If you don't have kids and want a change, go for it. They have compounds that are basically a microcosm of America for kids that would grow up their. In the world today, I wouldn't even think about it.
I don't know anything about working over there...
But I have an e-mail from the president of Nigeria himself, and he's going to give me $100,000 if I can help him deposit some cashiers' checks in my bank account!

Good money and the spicy food is excellent. Massive oil gas industry with thousands of ex-pats running it. Could be the best time of your life!
Hey! I got first dibs on the 100 large!quote:

A lady at church is from Nigeria. Her parents have been here for a few months, and they are great, everybody loves them. They recently returned because of the death of a family member, and on the way to the home town of the relative, they came to a place where traffic was backed way up. They assumed it was a police checkpoint, but it turned out that it was a holdup. These guys were just robbing everybody in all the cars. The mom mouthed off to them a bit, which isn't the smartest thing, but they got away without losing anything but some cash and jewelry.
So...if you go, and see a lineup of cars, you might turn around and make tracks.
