I was expecting a payment of about 218$ on my PayPal account which I created some years ago but never used. Payment was due today; however the sender is telling me that the payment has failed because "PayPal set status to failed." What does this mean and how can i fix it?  Please note that i am new to using PayPal

The option to receive Paypal payments is sadly not available in Nigeria.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive Paypal payments.
