Today, Its My Honour To Let You Know And Discuss With You how to verify Your PayPal account Here in Nigeria.

Nigeria Is Among The blacklisted Country by PayPal. Because Of This, We are not Opportuned to open A PayPal account. When This Was Done, Nigerians Developed Another Way Of using of PayPal Which Was By hiding The Nigerian IP address And Changing It To Us.

But Today, Nigerians can now open and verify Their PayPal account without hiding Their Nigeria IP, And Can Now use Their PayPal without been banned. Though, Nigerians Are Restricted On Receiving Funds but it's more better And Still Meaningful Since Payment Of Goods And Services Are Enabled.
