Abbas Condemns Abduction Of Workers, Patients In Kaduna

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas has condemned the attack on a hospital, and the abduction of workers and patients by bandits in Birnin Gwari, Kaduna State.

On Monday, bandits reportedly invaded the Primary Healthcare Centre at Layin Dan Auta village in Kuyello Ward, Birnin-Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State, during which they abducted two nurses and several patients yet to be ascertained.

Speaker Abbas charged security agencies with rescuing those kidnapped from the hospital and others in captivity across the country.

He was deeply worried that bandits and kidnappers are becoming too daring in their nefarious activities these days.

“The activities of bandits have become too rampant, especially with the last attack on vulnerable targets like a hospital.

“Our security forces need to, as a matter of emergency, go after the abductors and rescue those abducted from the health facility. They must ensure that no Nigerian kidnapped in any part of the country remains in captivity,” the Speaker said.

Speaker Abbas also called for sustained efforts to rid every part of Nigeria of the menace of kidnapping, banditry and terrorism.
