Bandits bomb Kaduna-Abuja train with over 1,000 passengers aboard
Armed bandits on Monday bombed a passenger train along Kaduna-Abuja track..

Fidet Okhiria, MD of Nigeria Railway Corporation, confirmed the development to Peoples Gazette, saying efforts are underway to obtain further information about it.
