Not sure what the problem is though? If she's proud of her Nigerian heritage and is used to hearing accents like that at home what's the issue?

I'm half African and slip into the occasional african accent from time to time, it's not harming anyone?

It's just odd, as unless she only associates with other Nigerians she would have a mixture of London/Nigerian not this full on accent like she got off the plane, I think she is putting it on...

It's not, but it's a bit fake and over exaggerated I think, like someone pretending to be extra thick or extra camp to grab votes

Don't think her putting on a Nigerian accent will gain her any votes with the British public

She's having fun

Don't know, so maybe she is thinking they have lasted this long she might be in with a shout if she comes up with an original DR angle, kudos to her for not going down the Nicki Graham route or faking being thick
