On November 28, 2022, the rail service between Abuja and Kaduna will recommence.
Eight months ago, the service was put on hold following a terrorist attack on the phone line.
This information was provided to our correspondent in Abuja on Thursday by a source at the Idu rail station.
Terrorists assaulted the Abuja-Kaduna train on March 28, 2022, causing 168 people to be abducted and eight others to be killed, according to ANAEDOONLINE.NG.
Since then, the victims have been released in waves; the most recent 23 were freed in October.
