TLDR : Answer Summary
Nigerian nationals are not eligible for a visa on arrival in Thailand and must apply for a tourist visa in advance. It is advised to apply at a Thai consulate in Nigeria, as applying from other countries may not be permitted. Several documents are required for the application, including a criminal clearance, bank statements, and health certificates.

Nigeria is not on the list for either Visa exempt or Visa on arrival. This means the person will have to apply to the Thai embassy in the country they have nationality

He has to apply for a visa in Nigeria and he has to get quite a few documents to apply:

Certificate of clearance obtained from Nigeria National Drug Law Enforcement Agency

Certificate of criminal clearance obtained from Nigeria police.

Bank Statement: Submit duly signed original copies of your Bank account details from your bank to prove you’re financially capable of roaming the country ($700 per person)

Original international health certificate of yellow fever vaccination

Confirmed return ticket

Address and the telephone number of your business associate

Hotel reservation

Itinerary: A reservation of the flight itinerary under the traveller’s name.

Reference Information: Name, address and phone number of a reference in your home country or the next country to be visited after Thailand.

He needs to apply for a visa before he arrives.

No. Nigerians are not eligible for visa on arrival nor visa exempt. They would have to get a tourist visa to enter.

Nigerian nationals are not entitled to any entry to Thailand and will need to apply for and receive a visa before traveling.

He can check with a consulate in Vietnam to see if he can get a tourist visa there, but many consulates nearby to Thailand have long processing time for nationals of many African countries.
