An early goal from Samuel Chukwueze provided a positive start and Taiwo Awoniyi netted their second on the stroke of half-time.
It took Moses Simon just 30 seconds of the second half to add a third, but Sudan pulled a goal back with a fortuitous penalty, converted by Walieldin Khedr with 20 minutes left. Nigeria now have six points from their opening two games, after beating Egypt on Tuesday, while Sudan have one point. Egypt and Guinea Bissau play their second Group D game later on Saturday at the Roumde Adjia Stadium.
