Recently, stones were thrown at a moving train, damaging the windscreen of the leading locomotive. This incident is part of a troubling trend; similar attacks have occurred in more than six locations along the corridor in recent weeks.

The NRC condemned these actions, stating they pose serious risks to passengers, staff, and critical infrastructure. Callistus Unyimadu, an NRC official, expressed deep concern about the frequency of these attacks.

Key facts:

• The Abuja–Kaduna rail corridor spans 177 kilometres.
• Attacks have been recorded at six different locations recently.
• These repeated acts amount to economic sabotage capable of disrupting national transportation.

The NRC is actively working with security operatives and community leaders to strengthen surveillance. They urge residents to report suspicious activities and discourage criminal behavior. Persistent attacks could severely disrupt service delivery if not urgently addressed.

The NRC remains committed to ensuring safe and efficient train operations across the country. However, officials have not confirmed a timeline for when security measures will be fully implemented.
