20 Bus Passengers Electrocuted
At least 20 people were killed in Port Harcourt on Saturday when a cable fell onto a bus and electrocuted people inside, the police said.
The police confirmed 20 deaths, but a spokeswoman, Rita Abbey, said the toll could climb higher.
Most of the dead had been passengers on the bus, though some had been passing nearby when the cable came tumbling down during heavy rains that have pummeled southern Nigeria.
The police could not say how many had been on the bus.
