Being an expat in South Africa means much more than packing your belongings and taking care of paperwork. Keeping in touch with your Nigerian compatriots is a big part of the expat experience and can help you understand the South African people and their culture better. With InterNations, meeting other Nigerians in South Africa is a breeze, no matter if you are in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban or any other expat magnet across the country. Just take our network of Nigerians in Cape Town, for example.

If you are in the mood to speak your mother tongue again, to learn about the best spots to shop for Nigerian food, or to discuss your favorite sports team’s latest match, join the Nigerian InterNations Community:

  • In our huge expat network, you can easily find like-minded expatriates from Nigeria.
  • Our South Africa Expat Forums are a great place to share experiences and advice – for example how to find a nanny speaking your language or where to get jolof rice in Cape Town...
  • The InterNations Places database for South Africa helps you find institutions like the nearest Nigerian embassy.

From the Highveld's Gauteng City Region to the Garden Route, a scenic stretch along the south-east coast, we’ll get you in touch with helpful and friendly Nigerian expats in South Africa.

    InterNations provided me with an "entrance" to the expat circles of Pretoria, so to speak, and helped me get to know other French expatriates.
