This is only a guess, as I am in the US.
The MAC OS only runs on MAC hardware. And, Apple is the only source of MAC hardware.
Unlike Windows, which runs on the X86 PC platform, where there are numerous hardware manufactures that support the platform.
You can buy a new X86 PC for as low as $300.
Whereas, the cheapest new MAC is around $1000.
There are only to market segments where Apple has any degree of market penetration;
Graphics arts
Schools
In the school market, Apples penetration is entirely the result of their marketing making a special effort to place systems in schools. They often all but give the systems to the schools on the concept that if you train children on the MAC, that is what they will want to use in the future.
I therefore, would assume that Apple does not see Nigeria as a market worth persueing at this time.

MAC has around 3% of the market. About 90% of PC software is never written for the MAC. Many of the programs that are written for the MAC are older versions and/or without all the features of the PC. The best MAC software has already been converted to the PC and in the case of Adobe sells more on the PC side than MAC. You can run Windows on MAC doing emulation but I do not know of any ability to run MAC operating system on a PC.
