Bandits have abducted nurses at a Primary Health Care Center at Layin Dan Auta village in Kuyello Ward, Birnin Gwari Area of Kaduna State.

According to community sources, the bandits had targeted a primary school in Kuyello, located on the outskirts of the town.

However, when they could not find pupils to abduct, they reportedly moved to the nearby hospital where they abducted the nurses on duty.

A community leader in the area, who preferred to remain anonymous, confirmed the incident and described the situation as worrisome.

“They arrived in the area and went straight to a nearby school, thinking they would find students. However, the school was empty, so they proceeded to the PHC in Kuyello and abducted the nurses on duty,” he said.

Another youth leader in Kuyello, Baba Isah, also confirmed the incident.

He stated that the two nurses were on duty when the bandits attacked. It remains unclear if any patients were abducted, as most had already left the hospital.

As of the time of filing this report, there was no official statement from the either state government or the police.

Police Public Relations Officer of Kaduna Command, Mansir Hassan, could not be reached on phone.
