At least 20 students have reportedly been killed by a bomb at a school assembly in the north-east Nigerian town of Potiskum. The explosion happened at a boys’ science and technical school in the town.
“The students had gathered for the morning assembly when something exploded in their midst with a thunderous sound at exactly 7:50 am [06:50 GMT],” a sobbing teacher told AFP news agency.
Victims were being rushed to a nearby hospital, said the teacher, who asked not to be identified. A witness told the BBC he saw parents wailing at the sight of the bodies of their children at the hospital. - BBC
