If you are both in the same country (whether the US or Nigeria) you can use the court system of the country you are in. If you are in different countries, then you are already separated; divorce papers can be sent through the mail, although that is a more difficult process, particularly if your Nigerian spouse does not want to agree to the divorce or does not agree about the terms of the divorce. If worst comes to worst, you might have to travel to the country where your spouse is, to pursue the matter.

Ans 1: Do not marry a Nigerian. They are all up to no good. There are very few nigerians who marry Americans for love. There is always something behind the scence. Just don't do it.

Ans 2: I would say stay away from Nigerians at all cost. They are greedy and hateful and do not like Americans.

Ans 3: That is not very fair, you are both just stereotyping. There are bad eggs in every country/continent, saying all Nigerians are greedy, hateful and up to no good is like saying all German's are Nazi's or all Irish people are alcoholics!!!

And to try and answer your question, which neither of the above tried to do, I would contact a Lawyer if i were you, if there are Immigration issues, as in you think he may have only married you for a green card/visa then i would say you could get the marriage annulled, although i am not familar with US law.
