Nigerians Killed At Bauchi State Cash Machine Blast

Several people have been killed in a bomb blast as they queued to withdraw money from a cash machine in northern Nigeria, residents have told the BBC.

They say the attacker approached the queue with a parcel before it exploded in Azare, Bauchi state.

No group has said it carried out the attack but suspicion is likely to fall on Islamist militant group Boko Haram.

The group has killed thousands since 2009 in its campaign to set up an Islamic state in northern Nigeria.
