Gunmen have reportedly invaded a Primary Healthcare Centre at Layin Dan Auta village in Kuyello Ward, Birnin-Gwari Local Government Area of Kaduna State.
It was gathered that the bandits abducted two nurses and several patients receiving medical care at the facility.
Meanwhile, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Abbas Tajudeen, while condemning the attack, charged security agencies to rescue those kidnapped and others in captivity across the country.
In a statement on Monday, the speaker’s media aide, Musa Abdullahi Krishi, quoted Mr Abbas as expressing worries 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.
