As a Nigerian citizen with a Nigerian passport, there are certain countries which do not require a visa or a visa-lottery upon entry so long as you have your Nigerian passport.
However, for some of these countries, there is an estimated amount of time you are expected to spend before a visa will be demanded for. The period of days for which you can stay varies from country to country and then you would have to obtain a visa, at least this is not like a gamble when you play the visa- lottery.
The easiest way to know the visa free
countries is to list all the countries you may visit visa free is to
split them into continents. In the Americas you may access Barbados for
six months, Dominica for 21 days, Grenada, Haiti, Saint Kitts and
Nevis for three months and Turks and Caicos Islands for 30 days.
In Asia you can freely arrive in the
following countries to which you will then be issued with a visa once in
the country. In Azerbaijan, Laos, Macau and Timor-Leste you are granted
with a 30 day visa. In Bangladesh you are granted a 90 day visa.
In Oceania you may access Micronesia,
Nauru, Niue, Vanuatu and Palau for 30 days, Cook Islands for 31 days,
Tuvalu for one month, Samoa for 60 days and Fiji for four months.
In Africa Nigerian passport holders
can visit the following countries visa-free; Benin, Burkina Faso, Cape
Verde, Cameroon, Chad, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Gambia, Guinea, Liberia,
Mali, Mauritania, Niger Senegal and Uganda, basically all the West
African countries.
