A week-old baby girl has been killed by her 8-year old sister and 6-year brother in Edo State.

Residents of Ofunwegbe Community in Ovia North-East Local Government of Edo State on Tuesday were shocked after a woman (their mother) raised an alarm that her children have killed their one-week-old sister.

An eye witness recalled that: The people initially felt it was just a joke, but they were shocked to discover the incident was true after the two children were caught and beaten. When questioned they confessed to have killed the little baby.

No one knows the reason behind the killing of the baby, could it be for ritual purposes?

We will find out soon, as they have been handed over to the Police for further investigation.
