Bandits on Monday reportedly attacked a Train coming from Abuja to Kaduna with over 900 passengers on board.
Reports say the bandits detonated a bomb on the Rail track of Abuja-Kaduna train and immobilized it at a point between Katari and Rijana while the attackers surrounded the train, shooting sporadically.
Confirming the incident, Shehu Sani, a former Kaduna Central Senator, said villagers around the area claimed the train was under attack.
“Villagers along Abuja-Kaduna road called to confirm hearing of multiple gunshots and attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train by terrorists,” he wrote on his Twitter Handle.
