Identities Of Victims Who Died In Abuja-Kaduna Train Attack Revealed
Mr Rotimi Amaechi, the Minister of Transportation, said that the army had not charged the victims a cent while they were being treated at the 44 Nigerian Army Reference Hospital in Kaduna on Wednesday.
Amaechi asked Nigerians to liaise with the hospital to contribute money as some of the patients who have bullets in their body may need surgery.
He said, “They said they have only seven (patients) left and the rest have been discharged. The ministry, and I think the federal government, are grateful to the Nigerian Army for providing such services.
“But one thing I have said to the Nigerian people is to liaise with the hospital management and see how much money they can contribute for the treatment of the patients”.
