The host returned for the second half and they were able to peg back their opponent who had grown in confidence.
After much pressure, substitute Fisayo Dele-Bashiru gave Super Eagles the much needed goal through a stunner off an assist from FC Nantes winger Moses Simon.
The win ensured that Nigeria maintained their position as the group leader ahead of Benin and Rwanda.
