Four boys were reportedly killed and their blood taken
away, yesterday, by suspected ritualists, who invaded an
Islamic school in Tungan Magajiya village, Rijau Local
Government Area of Niger State.

Three of the boys, according to sources, died immediately.

One died later, while the fifth is said to be recuperating in the
hospital.

The boys, who are said to be between the ages of eight
 and 13, had their throats slit, their blood drained into a container and taken away.

A mallam, whose two wards were among the victims,
confirmed the incident in a telephone chat with ERICGOSSIP,
disclosing that the boys were attacked in their sleep.

Contacted, the state Police Command spokesman, DSP 
Bala Elkana, confirmed the incident.

According to him, “those involved are suspected ritualists
because they only took away the victims blood and left 
their bodies on the spot around 3a.m. yesterday.”

He said investigation is ongoing and assured that the suspects will be arrested.
