The ambush by terrorists on the 7 Battalion of Guards Brigade of the Nigerian Army has left at least eight soldiers dead and three others injured.
Thirteen other soldiers, including the Commanding Officer, identified as Captain Samuel Attah, are still missing from the operation and the army have begun a search party for them.
The attack followed twenty-four hours after a video emerged where the Kaduna-Abuja train passengers were being beaten mercilessly and their abductors threatened to also abduct President Muhammadu Buhari and the Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai. The ambush took place along the Bwari-Kubwa road.
Also, bandits invaded the GRA in the New Millennium settlement of Chikun Local Government Area of the state and abducted about 20 residents of the area.
