Just remember to stay at a hotel with foreigners (like the Hyatt or something), travel with cars/taxi registered with the hotel or govt, and use the US Embassy as your local information center.
That's a good point about the hotel. Abuja is the capitol and has around 700,000 people, so international trade is happening. I know they have a Sheraton and a Hilton. You'll probably shell out $300-$500/night, but it will be more secure and you can use hotel taxis and concierge advice, etc.

Please let me know if you need to take it to the next level. I do have some contacts in the region and in the State Department, but would need a little time to get things rolling. Cheers, CWS
