An emeka Ugochukwu carrying an American passport is a Nigerian American, or rather an American of Nigerian descent. A Cody Edison carrying a Nigerian passport would be an American Nigerian.

well I consider myself to be Nigerian American. My parents are Nigerian immigrants and I was born & raised in America but was very much in the Yoruba Nigerian culture and have been to Nigeria many times. I never knew there was a title for American Nigerian before and that its meaning was different from Nigerian americans, so I find it interesting.

This link may help I guess
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigerian_Americans

but from what I see in this link they tend to group both together
