Two Bodies Deposited At Kaduna Hospital, Many Injured After Terrorists Bombed, Derailed Abuja-Kaduna Train

SaharaReporters learnt that some security personnel and passengers have also been confirmed dead but their names have yet to be released.

Two cleaners and workers of the attacked Abuja-Kaduna train identified as Loretta and Abdul have been confirmed dead, SaharaReporters learnt.

SaharaReporters learnt that some security personnel and passengers have also been confirmed dead but their names have yet to be released.

A lot passengers were also injured or abducted, it was learnt, it was gathered.
"Meanwhile, two dead bodies have been deposited at St. Gerald’s Catholic Hospital in Kaduna while some persons are being treated for gunshot injuries," a source told SaharaReporters.

SaharaReporters earlier reported that the terrorists who attacked the Nigerian Railway Corporation train from Abuja to Kaduna on Monday evening had abducted some of the stranded passengers.

SaharaReporters had obtained victims’ accounts which confirmed that some other persons were shot dead by the rampaging terrorists who operated for hours due to the absence of the Nigerian military and other security agencies.

“Some people have died, and the bandits kidnapped several persons,” a woman on the train confirmed to SaharaReporters.
“The army hasn’t been able to secure the area but people are running towards them in a staging area,” another source added.

In a Facebook post, another passenger, Anas Danmusa, said, “Please this is an emergency. We are inside the train at the moment.

Kidnappers planted explosives and the train engines have been ruined. We are helpless. Abuja to Kaduna train; gunshots still being fired around us. We are just under the seats praying to God while waiting for help. Since 8pm we have been here/ between Katari to Rijana; I am a living witness.”
He later added, “We are safe now.”

SaharaReporters earlier reported that the NRC could not yet reach its driver nor its engineers onboard the ill-fated train, adding to the anxiety of the already distressed passengers.
“The management of the Nigeria Railway Corporation claims they haven’t been able to speak with the train engineers and the driver.

The train was travelling to Kaduna and was already 45 minutes from Rigasa Police Station.
“Even though the Nigeria Army states they’ve arrived and secured the trains and passengers, the management still hasn’t been able to touch base with the crew. They are not sure if military secured or not.

“They are on standby to send another coach from Abuja. The train tracks were bombed and the train was derailed. The terrorists derailed the whole train,” one of the sources explained.
SaharaReporters also reported that the attack was still ongoing as of 9.42pm press time, while security agencies had yet to deploy to the scene.

One of the passengers who confirmed the incident in a telephone call said the attackers had surrounded the train and were shooting sporadically.

“All the passengers are currently lying on the floor of the train. The bandits are shooting sporadically. We are in serious danger,” said one of the panic-stricken passengers.
There are at least 970 passengers onboard the train, according to official sources familiar with the train service.

Buhari has destroyed Nigeria beyond redemption. Nigeria is now officially the most dangerous place in the world all thanks to the lifeless man in Aso rock. We never had it this bad. *Crying*

IPOB is the problem not bandits. Those in kaduna are already trapped. You can't travel to anywhere, bandits are everywhere but that Is not the problem, ESN and IPOB is the problem.

Conflicting reports

Dead bodies get deposited at hospitals all the time before and after the attack

How do we know it's from the rail track incident

Useless reportage

No pics no video, just hearsay

Note that the train was carrying APC delegates .

Good riidiance

Buhari will handle security
Osinbajo will handle economy



Be the CHANGE you want in your NEXT LEVEL.

My dear I saw the sarcasm in your post but truth be told, Buhari is a curse to Nigeria

Imagine IPOB attacked an airport and blew up a train. Buhari for declare a full blown war in SE.

So sad

If not that Nigerian politicians get into government for ego trip and massive looting, they would be scared to replace Buhari because that man has totally destroyed this country

Kaduna for the past one week, have seen cases of attack on the roads, in the airport, railway and home invasion

Same yesterday that Liar Mohammed came out publicly that Buhari has successfully handled insecurity that this happened

Naija which way, is killing synonymous to our name, especially North.

This is seriously serious and unfathomably unfathomable.

Despite having belief that Atiku might outperform Tinubu if elected, at the same time, I hardly find Atiku labelling this Fulani's bandits and condemning them. Are the fulanis that populated in the North that northern politicians find it difficult to label them what they truly are? Which is TERRORIST in big letters?

The only solution is a non-northern president. Only a non northerner president mcan deal with north very well and to be more precise, a south southerner or south easterner will deal with them better than a south westerner.

I am not campaigning for anybody though!!!!

Buhari u disappoint ur supporters every day, people who still support u are either online bots or bandits don dey online oh

H

This country should be broken into & governed by regions. Make every region face it's own peculiar challenges.
Make North combat BH & Bandits, West combat SM, SE combat UGM, SS combat oil theft & militants...

Passengers should pls avoid this train for now pending till normalcy returned

Lots of irregularities with train service

The messed-up Leaders hav successfully made Nigeria one of the most dangerous country to visit and reside

We manufacture terrorism
When we capture one, we give the good treatment and even forgive them
Some are lucky to get scholarship
While some are placed on payroll

The Arab countries are more devoted than average Nigerian Muslims....
When they capture a terrorist... they execute him publicly

Why for God sake, why is our gov banging bandits??
This people are fuving crazy mehn...

If you are Unmarried
I beg you... hustle....find money..
Give birth somewhere safe..for the future of you kids...

Reason ham... ur grand father suffer
Your fade suffer
You self chop suffer pro max

What's your plan with you unborn child?

Make God bless you all

Rip to the dead.

Ok nah

This is the result of a stupid president giving freedom and mercy to surrendered bokoharam that have wasted many lives.

Be the Change you want to see.

Don't wait for vain promises from some serial amd senile old politicians lacking ideologies but are masters in corruption and other vices.
