After receiving complaints from passengers, Pascal Nnorli, Manager of the Abuja-Kaduna Train Service (AKTS), released a statement.

The delay, according to Nnorli, was brought on by a shortage of diesel.

He claimed that the AGO received fell short of the required standard and was categorically rejected following a required laboratory test.

The manager explained that the test is done on every liquid used on the rolling stock, including locomotives, to make sure the proper specifications are being used.
