Yesterday, terrorists attacked the Kaduna Abuja railway with an explosive & opened fire on the train, targeting the Engine Driver & the Tank. This morning, I was on board when our train ran over another explosive damaged rail track. It took a miracle for us to escape,” Sani wrote.

This development is coming at a time the Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC) announced that it would reduce the number of trips on the Abuja-Kaduna route (from October 19 to October 21).
