Do Nigerian men marry African American women or other non-Nigerian women a lot?

the majority of Nigerian men marry their own cultural women; sometimes it depends on what tribe they are from because the igbo tribe marry out compared to any tribe in nigeria but it's still low. So only low numbers of Nigerian men marry African American or non-Nigerian(exception: other women from other African nations) women. So to answer your question, NO.
