There is indeed an African restaurant in St. Paul, MN, called Dupsey's. According to the (favorable) reviews I've read, it serves West/Central African food.  The owners could very well be Nigerian - I don't recall if this was identified in the reviews.

I've never been there, but it's on my list to try!  (We've got a lot of good ethnic restaurants here, and I can eat out only so much....)

For anyone in the area, here's some information about this place, from the Mpls/St.Paul magazine's restaurant listing (3/92):

      Dupsey's African Cuisine
      (612) 225-1525
      474 University Av., St. Paul
      "African restaurant offers assorted soups, stews,
      and rice dishes.  No liquor.  11 am - 9 pm M-Th,
      11 am - 10 pm F-Sa.  Call for Sunday hours.
      Inexpensive.  No charge cards."
