Fifty people have died after a head-on collision between two buses in northern Nigeria.
A small Toyota bus carrying around ten people and an inter-city bus carrying just over 40 crashed in the village of Durbunde last night.
Forty four people died on the spot, and ten were injured and taken to a nearby hospital. Six of the injured died today. Most of the dead were members of a wedding party.
"It was a scene of real horror," a health worker said. "The wreckage was total".
