The city of Kaduna in Nigeria was hit by two explosions leaving at least 40 people dead, reports the BBC.

The first explosion was targeted at a Islamic cleric Dahiru Bauchi whilst the second was directed at a senior opposition leader, Mugammudu Buhari.

Though no one has claimed responsibility for the attacks, government officials believe that Boko-Haram militants are responsible for the attacks.
