Women who are at the top of the marriageable list are;
Light Skinned Women
There is a popular Yoruba song that goes "omo pupa o, omo pupa la wa n fe; omo pupa o ju wo mo feran re o" it literally means "light skinned girl you are the one we want to marry, light skinned girl, please I love you."
Most men will give their right arm to date and marry a light skinned girl. In the olden days (and now) light skinned girls attracted more suitors and their bride price were quite exorbitant. Light skinned women are always the centre of attraction and most men who date them believe that marrying (a much coveted) light skinned girl will do wonders for their egos.
Most dark skinned women have taken to using skin bleaching crèmes in order to compete with their fairer counterparts.
Women With Ample Flesh
Most Nigerian men will not marry a skinny woman but they would rather sleep with her instead. Many men from the western and eastern part of Nigeria believe that a woman is more beautiful if she has ample flesh, some men have been known to date only women who have big butts! Most Yoruba men are of the opinion that sleeping with a skinny woman is like sleeping with a man, but sleeping with a woman that has some ample flesh will give them something soft to hold on to.
Understanding Women
An intolerant woman will sure have a hard time finding a man to settle down with. No Nigerian man wants a woman who will grill him at the slightest opportunity. If a Nigerian man suspects you to be intolerant of his (sometimes) bad behaviour, he will drop you like a hot potato.
The trick most women employ is to become his legal wife first, and after the wedding (now they have a firm foot hold) they'll draw up a list of do's and don'ts for their husbands to abide by.
Hardworking Women
Most men in Nigeria will never consider marrying a woman who is not gainfully employed or runs a business of her own. Gainfully employed women are at the very top of a searching bachelor's list. The present economic situation in the country is not making things any easier for men, who are mostly the bread winners of many Nigerian families. Most men want a wife who can help support the family (financially). Most women and a few men still believe that it is the man's responsibility to provide for his family and allowing a woman to do part of his job is nothing but an insult to his manhood.

I am A Nigerian N We Not That Bad Atleast Not All Of Us..
spell check people! you're making us all look bad!
LOL this is all crazy. I'm dating a Yoruba man now, raised in Nigeria, been here about 10 years. He's 27 and awesome. I'm thin and Latina and he adores me for me, for my mind, my sense of humor and because I'm not a push over. Not all Nigerian men are the same. I have many Igbo friends from college and they definitely do not fit the stereotype of this article. I've had awesome experiences with African people as a whole. I strongly believe what you put out in the universe you get back. Hence my lovely friends and now boyfriend.
Ladies, just please don't be naive.
I AM IN LOVE WITH AN NIGERIAN MAN i was married once before and he made me feel like nothing so he is my ex husband now we met on face book i was so afaid to trust anyone but GOD SHOWED ME THAT HE HAS MENthat will love his woman i want to thank you all for your post
Are they like what you Said i knew a Nigerian man but, he surprised me because he wanted to have a sexual relation without knowing me or even about my health .... I think they are more in sexual relations maybe because he is very rich ... but not all women are cheap some are very strong and wealthy .... and i don’t think a Nigieran man like to have a woman with a stronger personality ... but I like the man because he was very odd for me
I am a South African who has been married to a Nigerian man for the last 7 years . this man has cheated beat me up and all. i left him count less times .but he keeps coming back to my life . he has mad me see Nigerian man in anther view . so times wonder if the pain he has put me through would he have done so if it where I Nigerian women .
am a Nigeria young man but leave in Madagascar,i do not appreciate Nigeria girls before,but now i have come to found out that they are the best in the whole world,whenever am due to marry coming home i must.am not talking about the bad ones but generally Nigeria women have respect for marriage,i like light skin girl wey get body make i for see something hold,thats my choice you re free to make yours.
I am a Nigeria man, what you said is not true for all Nigerian men. We are people with divers interest and we make differents choices. For me I do not really care for a light skined woman. I have nothing aginst their skin but if I will marry a white woman I will rather marry a White instead of half and half. that is another Nigerian men's choice for you
well I am south African dating a Nigerian man, if they love light skinned women , then its too bad because I am dark and am not prepared to lighten my skin any time soon. what he sees is what he gets.
