Answer 2

We lived in Nigeria for 2 years and left in 2007, we had already had yellow fever vaccines when we lived in Angola.  We were never asked to show our yellow fever vaccine card for Nigeria.  As British people no vaccines were legally required.  I am sure your Dr will recommend lots of vaccines but personally the only one we had was Yellow Fever as it was essential for Angola.  It really depends on where you will be living and what you will be doing.  

Answer 3

Yellow Fever

Original and artificial he dey.

Answer 4

Which part of Nigeria are you visiting?

Far as I remember, Lagosians are innately very kind and giving but they do put up a tough exterior. Get past that exterior and you'll get kindness in payment for kindness.

Nevertheless, watch out for crooks. There will always be some around. Bear in mind though, that many are merely simply trying to get by.  

Answer 5

You will definitely need a yellow fever vaccination and some sort of malaria prevention .
