A train conveying passengers from Kaduna to Abuja derailed on Wednesday morning.
A Nigerian Rail Way Cooperation (NRC) staff who prefers anonymity confirmed the incident to the Guardian.
When asked if the problem had been rectified, the train staff replied, “We are still working on it”.
Similarly, a former senator representing Kaduna Central, Senator Shehu Sani hinted that a top Managing Director was on board while the incident occurred.
Meanwhile, at about 11:47 am, an X user named Norbert Shialsuk said they “were lucky it happened when we got to Abuja. Imagine this happening in the bush.”
The NRC is yet to speak on the incident as of the time of filing this report.
