By . The Nigerian Railway Corporation has expanded its train operations on the Abuja-Kaduna route, increasing the number of services from four to six during weekdays, specifically from Monday to Friday. A statement signed by the Deputy Director, Public Relations, Yakub Mohmood, on Wednesday, disclosed the new update.
This expansion is aimed at meeting the growing demand for train services on the route. The corporation said the decision followed a five-month trend analysis which revealed a 22 per cent increase in the number of new passengers registering on the ticket platform to use the Abuja-Kaduna Service. This growth, it noted, reflects a significant rise in the number of Nigerians opting for train services as a preferred mode of transportation due to its comfort, reliability, and safety.
He highlighted the corporation’s commitment to improving customer satisfaction and addressing complaints of ticket racketeering. It also noted that similar trends have been established on the Lagos-Ibadan, Warri-Itakpe, and Port Harcourt-Aba routes, and efforts are already ongoing to beef up services along these routes as well. The introduction of additional train trips on the Abuja-Kaduna rail route closely follows the Nigerian Railway Corporation’s recent expansion of services on the Lagos-Ibadan route.
