| 2022-03-17 |
One Mr Bulama Geidam, a health worker assigned to the General Hospital Gubio, in the Gubio Local Government Area of Borno State has been abducted by the members of the Islamic State of West African Province faction of the Boko Haram terrorists. The ISWAP insurgents attacked Gubio early hours of Wednesday, carting away a load of food items and fuel from a humanitarian truck. Confirming the abduction, the state Commissioner for Health, Juliana Bitruce, described the incident as “unfortunate and disturbing.” According to the News Agency of Nigeria, the Commissioner said that the abducted health worker was among those who remained at their duty posts despite the palpable insecurity within the area. “The ministry will write to officially inform all the concerned security agencies, including the Theater Command, Operation Hadin Kai,” she said. The commissioner prayed for the safe release of the health worker. |
