At least 22 people were killed and 132 others injured on Friday after a two-story school building collapsed in Nigeria's north-central Plateau state, authorities said.

The building at the privately-owned Saint Academy, a primary and secondary school in Jos, the capital city of Plateau state, collapsed when students were writing a promotional examination Friday morning.

The building housed several classrooms and offices.
