Blast at northern Nigeria college
A suicide bomb has exploded at a college in northern Nigeria's biggest city, Kano, and there are casualties, witnesses say.
The explosion occurred as students queued to check their names on a new admission list, they added.
Bodies lay strewn at the blast site, witnesses told the BBC.
Militant Islamist group Boko Haram has carried out a wave of
bombings and assassinations in Nigeria since launching a brutal
insurgency in 2009.
The bomber was hidden in the crowd, a witness, Isyaku Adamu, told the AFP news agency.
The BBC's Yusuf Ibrahim Yakasai in Kano says police have not yet confirmed the blast.
The number of people killed or wounded is still unclear.
