Abuja-Kaduna rail services return Nov. 28

The Abuja-Kaduna rail service resumes operations on Monday, November 28, 2022.

This is coming eight months after the service was suspended due to a terrorist attack on the line.

This was revealed to our Abuja-based correspondent on Thursday by a source inside the Idu rail station.

GOGAN TV reported that terrorists attacked the Abuja-Kaduna train on March 28, 2022, kidnapping 168 passengers and killing eight others.

The release of the victims has been in batches since then, with the last 23 released in October.

According to the source, some contractors were at the Idu rail station to install the tracker and cameras.

“They couldn’t install the cameras, but they installed the trackers on LOKO 2809 and on DMU 003.”

“The Managing Director, Nigeria Railway Corporation, Fidet Okhiria, is seriously monitoring it from Lagos.”

“We are proposing to start running by next Monday,” the source said.
