Maybe Interactive Brokers can do it, though Nigeria was not explicitly listed. Also IB is geared for traders and has a $10 monthly fee (less commissions paid) if your account is under $100k USD. $10k minimum to open account.

Contact a Nigerian broker. Nigeria has a stock market, if anyone knows how to trade and buy American stocks from there, they do.
