The voltages found in Antigua (230V) and Niger (220V) are not exactly the same, but the difference is tolerable, so you should not need a transformer.
The frequency of electrical current found in Antigua (60Hz) differs to that found in Niger (50Hz).
Most equipment is not affected by differences in frequencies. Some exceptions are:
