Suspected bandits have detonated bombs on the rail track of the Abuja-Kaduna train and successfully immobilized it.
According to sources, the attack which occurred on Monday night, 28 March, took place between Katari and Rijana.
It was reported that the attackers surrounded the train shooting sporadically.
“All the passengers are currently lying on the floor of the train. The bandits are shooting sporadically. We are in serious danger,” said one of the panic-stricken passengers.
There are at least 970 passengers on board the train, according to official sources familiar with the train service, DailyNigerian report.
This is coming a few days after the terrorists attacked the Kaduna International Airport where an aircraft was prevented from taking off.
