Suicide bomber hits Muslim procession in Kano

A suicide bomber on Friday blew himself up among crowds in a Shia Muslim procession in the village of Dakasoye, on the outskirt of Kano, organisers of the procession said.
“It’s a huge crowd so it’s too early to give a precise figure of casualties,” one of the organisers said of the blast in the village of Dakasoye, some 20 kilometres (13 miles) south of the city.
