28 suspected teenage cultists operating in public secondary schools in Asaba, in  Delta State have been arrested by the  Delta Police Command. The State Police Commissioner, CP Zanna Ibrahim, disclosed this on Saturday in Asaba.


He said that the teenage secret cult group was known as the “Future Trigger Boys’’ (FTB). The CP said the suspected cultists, aged between 13 and 16 years old, were rounded up during school hours, following intelligence reports from members of the public.

“These are children, who were sent to school to study but regrettably, they form cult group to terrorise their fellow students and the entire school. They call themselves the ‘Future Trigger Boys’. We were able to arrest these ones, while many others are still on the run.

“Since we arrested them, many of their parents have been on our neck,” Ibrahim said.
