I’m sorry you did not search before you posted and had to wait for this answer.
We use PayPal as our payment processor, and as such, we can only accept payment from countries they support: https://www.paypal.com/worldwide/
For whatever reason, they have chosen to block payment from Nigeria, so you will not be able to purchase an upgrade here unless you have a source of payment outside of Nigeria.

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:

It’s very sad that so many spammers have destroyed the reputation of your country with PayPal. Many bad apples (spammers, phishers, identity thieves) have spoiled this for everyone else in your country. :(
