On Tuesday morning, armed hoodlums suspected of kidnapping stormed the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH) in Ituku Ozalla, Enugu State.
Earlier this year, a resident doctor was attacked by gunmen on the hospital grounds and kidnapped, but he eventually managed to escape.
The kidnappers allegedly kidnapped a female deputy director of the hospital and a security officer.
A viral video shows an abandoned SUV apparently belonging to the abducted woman, a nurse, with bullet-perforated glass on the front passenger side.
The police and hospital management have yet to confirm the occurrence at the time of filing this story.
However, a reputable source who confirmed the story stated that it took place at the same site as a medical doctor was kidnapped a few weeks prior.
“This is so sad; we are not safe at all in this hospital; everywhere is porous,” a frightened staff member observed.
