The Nigeria star latched on to Nicolas de Preville’s long pass in the 29th minute, cut inside before curling into the bottom corner to double the hosts’ lead after Rémi Oudin had opened the scores with a freekick.
Toma Basic sealed the points a minute from time, tucking home a loose ball after goalkeeper Saturnin Allagbe spilled a shot.
The victory, which ended a three-game winless run, moves Bordeaux up to ninth in the Ligue 1 table with nine points.
