This is coming eight months after terrorists attacked the Abuja-Kaduna train, leading to the suspension of service in the route.

An inside source within the Idu rail station disclosed this to journalist in Abuja on Thursday.

iBrandtv recalls that the Abuja-Kaduna train was attacked by unknown gunmen on March 28, 2022, kidnapping 168 passengers and killing eight others.

The release of the victims had been in batches since then, with the last 23 released in October.

However, the source revealed that a group of contractors were at the Idu rail station to install the tracker and cameras.

“They couldn’t install the cameras but they installed the trackers on LOKO 2809 and on DMU 003.
