Prospect for a seasoned software developer isn't limited to Nigeria alone as you can gain value for your skills even outside the country. It depends on whether you're a programmer now and you want to advance or you're considering beginning the journey by learning programming now. What you should know is with consistency and hard work towards learning and building your skills, you'll make a good career in software development. Your age doesn't deter anything.
There are so many developers that work in big corporations IT department or tech firms that earn really well.
