73 minute goal by defender, Kenneth Omeruo who also doubled as man of the match, broke the deadlock after the Guineans held the Super Eagles to a goalless first half.
With the win, Nigeria remain at the top of Group B with six points.
They play their last game against Madagascar, which would be just a formalty.
