The attack in the city of Kano also injured eight people.
It's reported a bomb was thrown at Christians as they left St Charles RC Church following mass yesterday.
Police Spokesman Frank Mba told AFP: "We suspect an IED [improvised explosive device] that was thrown from across the road".
He also said the church had previously been attacked by Islamist militant group Boko Haram in the past.
