According to authorities, a Nigerian boy was slain by his brother as he tested a brand-new "bullet-proof" charm.
According to Kwara state police, the two felt they had "protected themselves with the protecting charm."
Using their father's weapon, Abubakar allegedly fired at their 12-year-old sibling Yusuf.
Currently, police are searching for the suspected murderer.
Despite the absence of proof, some people in Nigeria who wish protection from ill luck utilize charms.
People have reportedly died after using "bullet-proof" charms and medications, according to many stories.
Why the two brothers travelled to acquire protection is unknown.
After the gunshot, Yusuf Abubakar is said to have passed away there, but his elder brother managed to flee into the bushes, according to authorities.
The two brothers were a hunter's offspring.
Police have advised parents to watch their children's activities and avoid engaging in some objectionable behaviours.
