African Poison arrows and quiver

I am hoping to find out about the possible identification of the arrow and quiver in the photo. I suspect it is from Nigeria or somewhere in Western Africa?
I think the arrows have poison behind the tips but I might be wrong. The shaft behind the tip there is a clay like substance.

Can anyone help with identifying these? Does anyone know how I would be able to test what the substance is or is it a case of sending it off for testing?
