Stephane Bahoken and Clinton Njie scored for Cameroon in their 2-1 at half-time after Odion Ighalo had put Nigeria ahead.
But two goals in three minutes put Nigeria back in he lead. Ighalo equalised before the forward set up Alex Iwobi to hit the winner.
The Super Eagles will now face the winners of the last-16 tie between hosts Egypt and South Africa in the quarter-finals on Wednesday.
