I think people underestimate sexual selection when it comes to such things. Yes, latitude is important, but ultimately, it also comes down to whether or not a particular look is fancied by that group of people.

Senegalese (Wolofs at least) are indeed usually very dark skinned. What separates them from Nigeria for instance is that Senegal doesn't have thick tropical or equatorial [rain] forests. Senegal is mostly sahel, savannah, swamps and small forests.

Maybe the other way around, depending on how mating was done. Some tribes leave it up to the women, others up to the male, and then there are those who practice betrothal. In that case, the parents will select what they think are the best traits based on the parents of their future in-law.

As to why Nigeria isn't that pitch black, let me post these again
Considering overall irradiation, some places in Coastal Nigeria are on the level of Northern Italy, and if we look at direct insolation only, on par with places in Scotland! So they gotta get dat Vitamin D somehow
