The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has disclosed that the Abuja-Kaduna train derailed because the track fastening clips were removed by vandals.
Yakub Mahmood, Deputy Director of Public Relations at NRC who disclosed this on Thursday, June 6, said the affected passengers still have their tickets valid for a subsequent journey within two weeks.
He said;
“This minor hitch is attributed to the removal of track fastening clips by vandals. However, the NRC Management remains resolute towards ensuring the safety of our valued passengers in the entire system.
“For operational reasons, the first train from Kaduna (Rigasa) scheduled for 08.00 hours will be cancelled on Thursday 6th June 2024 only, while all other train services will run as scheduled.”
