Have you noticed how men never ask for the other side of the story, or say stuff like "If this is what truly happened then" or "There is more to this story but", whenever a man reports a misdeed committed by a woman? They readily believe stories about adultery, verbal abuse, physical abuse, neglect or disrespect.
This is more than a man covering up for another man. This is more like a man not being able to see women as people like himself.
A man is a person. A woman is a woman.
When you see human beings as people, you are more likely to empathize with them. But when you see human beings simply in function of their biological and social roles, you won't feel anything for them.
You need them to exist for their usefulness, but you don't care about them.
Nigerian men don't care about Nigerian women. They only need us to perform our roles of servers, and decorative and stress relief figures.
It shouldn't surprise us though. The patriarchy has always been homoerotic.
