 Transportation Minister visits Abuja train station, says NRC MD may face disciplinary action

AIkali disclosed this on Sunday when he paid an unscheduled visit to the Idu Train station in Abuja.


During the visit, the minister who personally inspected the coaches discovered several issues that needed urgent attention.

So, if he comes I am now well informed the lifts and escalators aren’t working, which makes it very difficult for the elderly and the disabled persons to use the train for travelling.


“Therefore, he would explain why disciplinary action wouldn’t be taken against him."
