Plateau Hospital Addresses Rumors of Abduction Plot

Plateau State Specialist Hospital has issued a statement to quell rising tensions regarding an alleged abduction plot targeting medical workers. The management, represented by Talatu Achan Angi, confirmed that the hospital remains safe and operational, with services running without disruption.

The statement was prompted by a leaked internal memo dated April 13, 2026, which warned of a potential plan by a terrorist group to kidnap healthcare practitioners, particularly those treating gunshot wounds in the region. The hospital management emphasized that there is no unrest among staff or patients and urged the public to disregard misleading information that could destabilize peace in the area.

They reassured residents that healthcare services are fully operational and encouraged continued visits for medical needs. The memo highlighted the need for heightened vigilance among healthcare workers due to the evolving tactics of the terrorist group, which poses a serious risk to healthcare personnel in the state.
