The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command is investigating the mysterious killing of four persons inside a house in Abuja.
One of the victims, said to be a Nigerian singer, Chop Boii, was killed alongside his producer and others in a house in Gwarinpa, Abuja.

Chop Boii, AKA Sempe, was reportedly in the house with his producer, a friend and his producer’s girlfriend when they were reportedly attacked and killed.
After the killing, their fingers were chopped off and their blood was used to write on the wall.
A friend who narrated the incident said it wasn’t Chop Boii they came for but he and his friend were in the producer’s house at the wrong time, so they were also killed.
Tributes are already pouring in as friends express shock over the death of the talented singer.
The victims
The incident was reported to FCT police operatives, who went to the house and discovered the bodies.
A spokesperson for the Command, Josephine Adeh, said the Command has commenced an investigation into the incident.
“We are investigating the incident and we will soon brief you,” she said.
