NRC SAY ABUJA-KADUNA RAIL TRACKS TO BE REPAIRED AFTER BANDIT ATTACK
The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has announced the plans for the repair work of the sections of the Abuja-Kaduna rail track that were destroyed by bandits on March 28.
According to Deputy Director of NRC, Public Relations, Yakub Mahmood, “Work is ongoing on the Abuja-Kaduna rail tracks. The railway engineers are repairing the destroyed sections,”
He also said that”I can’t say when the work will be completed.”
On March 28, terrorists blew up sections of the Abuja-Kaduna rail track and attacked a Kaduna-bound train in the Kateri-Rijana area of Kaduna, a short distance from the train’s final stop.
The gunmen shot and killed some passengers, injured others and are still holding many of them hostage in the forest, compelling the NRC to suspend train operations on the Abuja-Kaduna route.
