No you still go online fill out application and pay as usual. It's no more we mail application and passport to Embassy. Either go through OIS office or go through a Visa processing company where the Biometrics is not asked for but you have their fee to deal with but for those that have big flight money or pay that $200 to $400 for Visa company it may well be worth t.

 

CIBTVISAS.com  is one of the companies that a friend of mine just used and went to Nigeria last week.. NO issues she paid $350

Yes I agreed with you. My fiance also used the same visa company and he did go for biometrics, got his visa sent to him. But it's  valid only for 3months from date of issuance, even though they stated 24months at the bottom.

The better option for those of Nigerian origins, would be to get the Nigerian passport instead of a Nigerian visa. it is about the same cost and you can have the passport for years versus an entry or two with the visa. you are allowed to be a Dual citizen, so you can have both an american passport and Nigerian passport. it is so easy this way, i show my Nigerian passport when i am traveling to Nigeria and when i am returning, i use my american passport.

Hope this helps.
