Is it risky to go to Nigeria for a job in oil company?

The risk is certainly much higher than getting a job in Nowhereville, OH.





Especially if you are a 'visible foreigner' - ie. your tone of skin being lighter than that of the nigerians.





Never go out alone, and keep to well populated areas.





Better yet, don`t go.Is it risky to go to Nigeria for a job in oil company?
Though Lagos is one of the best cities of the world, yet the city is not crime free. One has to be very very vigilant while going out.Is it risky to go to Nigeria for a job in oil company?
As per the news, nigeria is not yet stable. There were some expats their held hostage by some extrimist. Some were free but there were isolated cases expats were killed.





The current situation of Nigeria now was still not stable, i suggest you should not go their untill the the situation will be better.
