The deadly strain of bird flu has been found in poultry in northern Nigeria, the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) has said in statement.
The Paris-based organisation said this was the first time the disease had been detected in Africa.

The body said it was the "highly pathogenic" strain of the H5N1 bird flu virus, which can kill humans.

It was detected on a farm in the northern state of Kaduna, where a team of experts have been sent.

More than 150,000 birds have died recently in what vets thought was Newcastle disease, a common ailment among birds in the region.

Nigeria's National Veterinary Institute said 40% of poultry farmers have been affected by an illness.

Farmers in the northern town of Kano are holding an emergency meeting to try to halt its spread.

Migrating birds

The OIE said that an Italian laboratory for avian flu had detected the strain.
