Observers say dozens killed in Nigeria poll violence

By Paul Carsten and Alexis Akwagyiram ABUJA (Reuters) - As many as 39 people were killed in election violence so far in Nigeria, civil society groups said on Sunday, as the country awaits the results of voting in what is forecast to be its tightest election since the end of military rule in 1999. The number of deaths reported by Sunday was below the final death tolls in previous elections in Africa's most populous country, but in the past most unrest has taken place after results were announced.
