Many feared dead in Nigerian violence
Many people were feared killed in fresh violence near Port Harcourt, the oil-rich southern Nigerian city, at the weekend, police and press reports said on Tuesday.

"There was an incident at Buguma on Sunday. We heard many people were killed, but I cannot confirm the figure at the moment," said Rivers State police spokesperson Ireju Barasua.

She said anti-riot policemen have been deployed to the troubled Ijaw community following the clashes between two rival street gangs.
