SOME gunmen suspected to be bandits have attacked a General Hospital in Dansadau community in the Maru Local Government Area.
The incident occurred yesterday when the assailants invaded the facility and kidnapped two health workers, according to reports.
Chairman of the state chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association, Dr. Mannir Bature, confirmed the incident to Channels Television.
According to him, the bandits stormed the hospital with the intention of kidnapping medical doctors and nurses attached to the hospital but after a search, they only ended up in kidnapping a ward attendant and a patient’s relation.

Following the incident, Dr. Bature noted that the NMA Zamfara branch will hold an emergency state officers council meeting today at NMA Secretariat to deliberate on the issue.
