- Hair: One of the most treasured and desirable objects of a Nigerian lady is hair. Human hair in particular. Price isn’t a barrier to them as ladies invest a lot in human hair. They come in different lengths, styles and grades. As a boyfriend, it is expected of you to add one or more of these to their collection.

- Clothes: Beautiful gowns, blouses, jumpsuits, palazzos, etc are always welcomed as presents by ladies. Go for something unique. A style that suits her taste. A style you will love to see her in. Ladies love looking beautiful.
- Phone: Women like phones as presents. iPhones or other expensive phones are good for them. This one unsurprisingly requires a much larger budget but if you are up for it, go ahead.

- Cosmetics: Creams, scrubs, makeup and so on are essential for ladies. It helps them to look, smell and feel beautiful. Something every boyfriend loves as well.
