At least 37 people were killed on Tuesday in a bus pile-up in northeastern Nigeria. The deadly crash occurred near the town of Maiduguri when two buses collided head-on and burst into flames. Subsequently, a third bus collided with the two burning vehicles, according to Uten Boye, head of the road safety agency in Borno state."
"37 people were killed, most of whom were charred," Boye said. He noted that the burst tyre caused the driver of a bus to lose control of his vehicle, which had been speeding.
