Panic erupted on an early morning train journey from Kaduna to Abuja after a loud bang jolted the moving train to an abrupt halt, leaving several passengers injured.
Eyewitnesses reported that the impact threw travellers across compartments, with many sustaining visible injuries and bleeding before emergency calm was restored. The train reportedly remained stationary for about 30 minutes before continuing its journey towards Kubwa, heightening anxiety among those on board.
Initial reports indicate the incident may have been caused by a collision involving another train along the rail corridor, forcing a temporary suspension of operations on the busy route.
Some passengers expressed frustration over what they described as a lack of immediate communication from railway authorities following the incident. Videos and images circulating online showed distressed travellers gathered along the tracks as railway personnel and bystanders assessed the situation.
