You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.
Also 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.
Advice is voluntary.
Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Hello @SamOJ,
Welcome to PayPal Community Forum and thank you for posting!
I understand that you're facing issues while adding funding sources to your PayPal account and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. Yes, I agree with @kernowlass. PayPal Nigerian accounts can only link VISA card [not prepaid or gift card] that is issued by your bank. If the currency is different on the card, you may change it according to your preferences by reaching out to our customer support team through the available contact options on our website. Alternatively, Support is also available through Facebook private messages or Twitter direct messages.
Regards,
Ayesha
