A passenger disclosed that the train derailed at about 3:52 pm —less than 30 minutes after it departed Kubwa station in Abuja.
“Passengers are currently stranded as there are no signs of authorities being notified,” the passenger who asked not to be named said.
This is the second time in two weeks that the train has run off its tracks.
