Hello there,
I’m so sorry but your country Nigeria is not a PayPal supported country found on this list. WordPress.com uses PayPal as their payment processor, and as such, can only accept payment from countries they support: https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/PayPal have chosen to block payment from your country, so you will not be able to purchase an upgrade here unless you have a source of payment outside of your country.
In addition to major credit cards Mastercard, VISA, American Express, Discover, and PayPal https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/ WordPress.com can accept echecks and some debit cards.
The debit card must have a VISA or Mastercard symbol on it, and should work just like a credit card when selecting the VISA or Mastercard option on the payment form, even though it’s a debit card.
More about echecks here:
https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/helpcenter/article/?solutionId=13054&topicID=11500008&m=TCIWordPress.com also accepts Bitcoin for payment of certain upgrades ( bitcoin cannot be used for domain and premium theme purchases) – you can learn more here: http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2012/11/15/pay-another-way-bitcoin/

Ok. Thanks for taking your time to answer my questions. Its just that I’ve dreamed about registering a domain name for my blog, it was something I looked forward to with so much anticipation only to be halted when I got so close to fulfiling this dream.

Hi @lifeomania – Unfortunately, at this point, my only suggestion is to use a card that’s registered to an address in a country PayPal will accept. If you have any friends or family outside the country, perhaps they could register it for you and you could reimburse them. The other option is Bitcoin:
