It's not difficult to get a business visa for Nigeria, and you can even file your application via the immigration department's new online portal - Portal.immigration.gov.ng. Mind you, if it works like the rest of Nigerian bureaucracy, it may not work at all. Still, I guess it's worth a try. Here are the things you need:
Passport valid for at least 6 months.
Duly completed visa application form
Two recent passport photographs
A Letter of invitation from a company/host in Nigeria accepting immigration responsibility.
Visitors/tourists are required to show evidence of sufficient funds
Evidence of online payment for visa fee
So, before you file the application, you'll need to make payment. I believe it's 400 ZAR or the around 58 USD for South Africans to get a business visa for Nigeria. If you're a self-sponsored business man, you'll just need to supply proof of sufficient funds.
