Former Senator, Shehu Sani, alerted the general public on Facebook on how a Kaduna-Lagos train was attacked by bandits with explosives.
In the attack, bandits were said to have attacked the Kaduna-Abuja train. "They planted an explosive that damaged the rail track and shattered the windshield of the train engine. They also opened fire, targeting the driver and the tank. It happened between Dutse and Rijana stations. The driver struggled to move towards Kaduna Rigasa station.
"This early morning, I was on board when our train ran over another explosive damaged railings. The train nearly skid off its track, then we miraculously escaped. All Kaduna Abuja train operations need to be suspended for today until this issue is addressed."
However, the Managing Director of the Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC), Mr. Fidet Okhiria, who though is said to have acknowledged the incident, said vandals are suspected of being behind the incident.
