The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has suspended train operations along the Abuja-Kaduna route indefinitely.
The NRC made this known in a tweet on Tuesday morning.
“Dear passengers, due to unforeseen circumstances, Train operations along the Abuja-Kaduna route has been temporarily suspended. Further communication would be given in due course,” the corporation said.
The suspension followed Monday night’s attack on a train plying the route. Suspected bandits bombed the rail tracks and shot at passengers before Nigerian troops were deployed to arrest the situation.
