Nigerian govt gives conditions for resumption of Abuja-Kaduna train services

The Minister of Transport, Mu’azu Sambo, said on Tuesday appropriate technology would be installed before the resumption of train operations on the Abuja- Kaduna route, IgbereTV reports

Sambo, who stated this during a familiarisation visit to the Idu and Kubwa train stations in Abuja, also expressed optimism that all the passengers kidnapped in the March 28 attack on the train would soon be reunited with their families.

The minister said that there was the need to ensure necessary measures were taken to avoid reoccurrence of the attack.

Terrorists on that fateful night detonated an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) on the train and forced it to derail a few minutes into the trip in Kaduna.

Eight people were killed and 30 others injured in the incident.

The terrorists also abducted 61 passengers after the attack.
