The House of Representatives on Saturday decried the abduction of 20 medical students in Benue State.
Gunmen on Thursday abducted the students who were travelling to a conference organised by the Federation of Catholic Medical and Dental Students in Enugu.
The victims comprised 12 students from the University of Jos and eight from the University of Maiduguri.
The incident has caused uproar in the country with many demanding swift response from security agents.
In a statement by its spokesman, Rotimi Akin, the Green Chamber charged the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, and other security agencies to mobilise all necessary resources to ensure the safe return of the students.
The statement read: “The safety of our medical students is paramount, and this incident is not just an attack on these young professionals but on the future of our healthcare system. We cannot afford to lose any more lives to the insecurity plaguing our country.
“No student should be fearful of going about their lawful duties in the country. We demand decisive action from our security agencies to bring these students home safely.”
“The House remains committed to supporting initiatives that enhance the security and safety of all Nigerians and will continue to monitor this situation closely. Our thoughts and prayers are with the abducted students and their families. We call for immediate and decisive action to ensure their safe return.”
