Baby can probably claim parents' nationalities, depending on their laws. Baby may register as British, when
eligible.

What is your citizenship (I assume you are the mother)? What is the citizenship of the father? Where was the baby born? Where do you each live now?

Since the baby was not born in the UK and neither of the parents is British, then Naturalization is the only option for British citizenship that I am aware of.
I assume the child already has a French and Nigerian passport?
