The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has announced the postponement of the planned resumption of train services along the Abuja-Kaduna corridor.
The Corporation had earlier announced that operation would resume along the route on Monday, May 23
The move has to be related to pressure from families of victims of the March 28 kidnapping on the same route.
The Corporation postponed the resumption indefinitely as no new date was announced.
Spokesman of the NRC, Mr. Mahmud Yakub, in a statement on Friday said a new date would be announced: “soonest.”
In the statement, the NRC apologized for the delay in the resumption of the service even as it assured the families of the kidnapped victims that it was working very hard to safely rescue the kidnapped victims.
