Once you see the spelling Nigeria whether in capital letter or not don't just ignore but log out of the computer , switch it off completely and switch it off on the mains don't forget to pull the plug off and go to bed,
IT IS A SCAM

STOP CHATTING WITH HIM!
There are scam artists out there stating this and being in other countries. Asking for money to get out, asking for young girls to marry them for get visa, all different things. They are all scam artists and many live in Britian and are having people wire money to a bank account or using Western Union and other services for money. They take your money and that's all folks. Don't give this person any more information about you or anyone. Report him and stop chatting with him.

I suggest to you that he give his credit details first...then charge flight and hotel charges to it while you investigate his claim..these fools have fallen for it before.Good Luck.If you are new to this ...let me explain..Nigeria (god love her) is the home of the scam that can be embarrassing to everyone.

There have been warnings about this! It's a hoax! They post pix of actors or models and carry on a friendship for awhile...then suddenly need financial help. Oprah did a segment on this and it was on the news...AVOID

Yes, I have. It's a big scam, don't fall for it and change your email ID etc., ASAP. They get in to your ISP #, etc. It's a real hassle. Good luck and a good question.
