The train has one first class cabin, one business class cabin and six economy class cabin. First class and business class seats 86 persons each. Economy class seats at least 120 persons, attachments and standings not inclusive. 120x6’= 700 persons. By the time you add up the 172 persons on the vip cabins, you’re having almost 900 passengers as at the time of the incident. So people saying 950 persons were on board the train, wasn’t far from the truth.

I don't think all the cabins were filled up though. The true picture will come out soon sha

Its Totally False and its Impossible cause the punitive measures in place makes it very very difficult for people to pass,moreover that 6pm Train on Mondays hardly have 40% of passengers
Naija,let's not believe everything we see online cause most of it are false

If you’ve ever followed that train you will know it’s almost impossible to have 950 passengers on that train by this time of the year and not even on that last train.
People avoid the last train, most times it has empty seats all over.

Did you guys forget that these bandits first of all scared the shii out of airport users the previous day? This they know would lead many people especially the big men to turn to trains.
Reason why the business class was most hit.

sinkhole:
Well, 900 or not, it is very clear that tickets are being racketeered and some kidnapped people will not be found on the manifest and hence, on their own!

It is very difficult for someone to board Trains without Ticket

The director of NRC must be Hausa/Fulani . They don't steal with pity!

A lady was also interviewed on Arise, one of the survivors. She said about 500 people were on the train. I personally refuse to believe that more than double the number on the manifest was on the train. Presently, we can account for less than 60 people. If we go by official figures, that will leave a balance of over 200 people. If 970 is the correct figure however, that will imply over 900 people have been kidnapped. Abeg wetin dem take move 900 people and where will they move them to? Is that not more than the population of some areas?

Where do you include the escapee? But I am sure it is not all escapee that were accounted for

For those that are still in doubt
