Voting underway in Nigeria despite violence



Officials are counting the votes cast in Tuesday's election for state governors across Nigeria.

The poll was marred by bomb blasts, shootings and accusations of ballot box snatching - after rioting in the country's north left hundreds dead in the week since Goodluck Jonathan was declared winner of the presidential election.
