21 athletes have died in a bus crash on a motorway in Nigeria. The crash was a single-vehicle accident, and the cause is said to have been either fatigue or speeding.

The athletes were on their way to Kano in northern Nigeria from a sports tournament in the southern state of Ogun.

The tournament was held for everything from wheelchair basketball to wrestling.

Traffic accidents are common along Nigeria's often poorly maintained road network.
