Terrorists Attack: Abuja-Kaduna Train Services Suspended

Following the Monday evening attack on the Abuja -Kaduna train, the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has suspended train operations along that route.

In a message posted on its booking website and social media handles in the early hours of Tuesday, the NRC said it was suspending the service for the safety of travellers.

The corporation, however, said it was working to restore the service and would inform the public when the train will start running

Recall that terrorists on Monday night bombed and successfully immobilised the 970 passenger-filled Abuja-Kaduna train.

It was gathered that the terrorists planted explosives on the rail tracks and bombed the train just before Rijana, a community along the rail line in Kaduna notorious for kidnapping and other security breaches.
