Bandits have struck in Idon General Hospital in Kajuru Local Government Area of kaduna State, and have abducted two nurses.
The attack which comes barely 24hours after several students were abducted and one person killed during an attack on Greenfield University along the Kaduna-Abuja highway in Chikun Local Government Area, took place in a location less than a kilometre from a police checkpoint along the Kaduna-Kachia road in Idon.
Confirming the incident, Chairman of Kajuru local government, Cafra Caino, said the bandits stormed the general hospital through the fence with deadly weapons and started shooting sporadically within the hospital premises.
He explained that two nurses identified as Afiniky Bako and Grace Inkut who were on night duty, were taken away by the bandits.
Cafra added that plans were already underway to boost security in the hospital and environs to avoid a future occurrence of such an attack.
