Nigeria eSIM for Lagos arrivals and Abuja stays
Compare Nigeria eSIM plans for a Lagos terminal-to-address arrival, an Abuja family or work stay, and onward flights or stays in other cities.
A Nigeria trip can begin at Murtala Muhammed Airport in Ikeja, continue to a final Lagos address in Victoria Island, Lagos Island or Lekki, or use Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport for an Abuja stay. Treat each handoff as its own job: save the booked airport and terminal, the agreed pickup contact and the exact entrance pin. If you continue to Port Harcourt, Enugu or Kano, each onward stage still needs its own confirmed meeting details.
For this trip
Which eSIM suits a Nigeria trip?
Choose a Nigeria plan whose validity covers every stay and whose live allowance fits messages, maps, appointments and any laptop use. Base the choice on the final Lagos address, the length of the Abuja stay and each separately booked onward arrival. Nigeria is not included in Horizon's current Africa regional package.
Horizon sells the plans shown on this page, so this page is not a neutral market comparison or ranking. Compare the live product details before choosing.
Lagos final address
Pair the booked terminal with the exact entrance and pickup contact in Victoria Island, Lagos Island or Lekki.
Abuja stay length
A brief appointment schedule and a longer family stay need different validity and daily-use choices.
Onward city booking
Treat Port Harcourt, Enugu or Kano as a fresh arrival with its own booking, host contact and destination address.
Refund policy
We always refund the full amount you paid when you request it, whether your eSIM is unused, partly used or fully used. There is no time limit for requesting a refund.

How eSIM works in Nigeria
Install the eSIM over dependable Wi-Fi and save the instructions outside the phone. Leave the line off until you are in Nigeria, then select Horizon for mobile data and enable data roaming on that line. For the Nigeria plan, the first successful connection to a supported network in the included destination starts the validity period. Keep data roaming off on your home SIM unless you intentionally accept its provider's charges.
Install your eSIM
Scan the QR or auto-install in the app — no physical SIM.
Land & connect
Data activates on first connection at your destination.
Size it to your trip
Pick the profile closest to your trip. The estimate assumes normal use — maps, messaging, photos, a short call home.
As a rule of thumb, a 3–4 day city break runs on about 1–3 GB, a one-week trip on 3–5 GB, a two-week multi-country tour on 8–12 GB, and working on the road takes about 1 GB a day, so 15 GB or more for two weeks.
Recommended size
3GB3–4 days
≈0.4 GB a day
- Maps every day
- Messaging and photos
- A short call home most days
In total, a 5 GB data allowance covers roughly 1,700 shared photos, 83 hours of social media and browsing, 15 hours of video calls, 63 hours of music streaming, or about 1000 hours of maps and navigation. Messaging apps barely use data.
Important cities in Nigeria
Lagos / Ikeja · City guide
Lagos / Ikeja
Murtala Muhammed Airport is in Ikeja. Save the exact terminal shown on the booking, the meeting contact and the first address before departure; “Lagos” alone is not a complete pickup instruction.
Lagos / Ikeja eSIM — set up before you fly →Abuja · City guide
Abuja
Abuja is the federal capital and is served by Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. A short schedule of appointments and a longer stay with relatives call for different validity and daily-use choices; save the actual meeting address.
Abuja eSIM — set up before you fly →Port Harcourt · City guide
Port Harcourt
Port Harcourt's international airport is at Omagwa. Keep its booking, host contact and destination address apart from the Lagos or Abuja arrival details, and do the same for a later flight to Enugu or Kano.

Frequently asked questions
What should I save before arriving in Lagos or Abuja?
Save the flight, booked airport and terminal, agreed pickup contact, full destination address and entrance pin. Keep the eSIM instructions available offline too.
How do I choose data for a Nigeria family visit or work trip?
Cover the full visit first. Then compare the live allowance for messages and maps with heavier laptop, internet-call or media use; do not plan from the arrival day alone.
Does the Horizon Africa regional eSIM include Nigeria?
No. Nigeria is outside that package's current six-destination list. Choose a Nigeria plan, and confirm each additional country in the exact product list before purchase.
Can I keep my own number and share a hotspot in Nigeria?
On a compatible dual-SIM device, your usual SIM can stay installed. Horizon is data-only and includes no local number. Home-provider charges may apply. Hotspot is free on every Horizon plan, uses the same allowance and is not throttled.
Does a Nigeria listing promise service between every city?
No. A destination listing shows intended territory, not continuous road, indoor or terminal reception. Save every next booking, address and host contact independently.
When should I install the Nigeria eSIM, and when does validity start?
Install on dependable Wi-Fi before travel, but leave the line off until Nigeria. The first successful supported-network connection in the included destination starts the selected validity period.
