Hi Guruprasad,
To answer your question fully, one would need to know which part of Nigeria are you headed for, but here goes....
Nigeria is divided into three ethnic groups. The Yorubas (located in West and Sout West), the Ibos (who inhabit the East) and the Hausas (who inhabit the North).
Broadly speaking the North is relatively more bearable for Indians and the erstwhile nomadic Hausas, are - usually - quite straightforward. Kano - a plateau region - has excellent weather conditions.
Corruption is everywhere and hits you the moment you land. It is advisable to have security (normally company provided, if this is an assignment), and particularly so if you are in Lagos.
All in all, one usually has a mixed bag of experiences!
Hope this helps as a starter.
