The Nigerian government offered testing for 4,500 jobs in the immigration department on Saturday.  Over 125,000 applicants went to various testing centers.  Due to exhaustion and heat, 16 of these applicants are now reported dead, along with various others who fainted during the wait.  One testing center in Akure, experienced tragedy, when more than 12,000 applicants stampeded.
