Unidentified gunmen suspected to be bandits in their large numbers have kidnapped two nurses and an unspecified number of patients from the Primary Healthcare Centre at Kuyallo, eastern part of Birnin-Gwari LGA of Kaduna State.
The hoodlums were said to have targeted the nearby Government Day Secondary School, at 9:00 am on Monday. However, upon finding the school empty, they stormed the closest health centre.
According to Musa Alhassan, a leader of a local vigilante group in the area, the bandits, who were seeking to abduct students, instead took two female nurses and several patients hostage, leaving the community in a state of panic.
An eyewitness further revealed that the bandits came into the healthcare centre wielding guns and machetes and dragged people out of the hospital.
