Terrorists kidnapped three soldiers in Zamfara State. The men had just finished training when the attack took place on July 2.
Terrorists stopped the commercial vehicle the soldiers rode in near Anka.
They took the three men along with other passengers and demanded a ransom of 50 million naira.
Later the terrorists lowered the demand to 5 million naira each.
Families told military officials about the abduction right away.
Thirteen days passed with no rescue effort or official word from the army.
One security analyst shared details in a video and said three other soldiers escaped the same ambush. Two of those men remain missing.
The incident adds to the security problems in the area.
Travelers on these routes face risks from terrorists who operate there.
Families continue to wait for updates while the soldiers stay in captivity.
