The derailed Abuja-bound train
A train travelling from Abuja to Kaduna has derailed at Asha Station, leaving many passengers stranded in the Federal Capital territory.
It would be recalled that on May 26, an Abuja-bound train derailed along the Abuja-Kaduna route, leading to the passengers being stranded in the Jere area of Kaduna State.
This marks the second instance in two weeks that the train has derailed.
However, when contacted, the spokesperson for the Nigerian Railway Corporation, Yakub Mahmoud, stated that a formal statement regarding the incident would be sent soon. (The PUNCH)
