The Nigeria Railway Corporation (NRC) has confirmed that some miscreants on Tuesday hauled stones on the Abuja-Kaduna train.

The corporation denied however, the story that the train was attacked by robbers.

Mr Yakub Mahmood, the Deputy Director, Public Relations of NRC, said there was no gunmen attack on the train, “but an act of stoning by miscreants’’.

“There was an incidence of miscreants along Abuja-Kaduna railway corridor who engaged in an unwholesome act of stoning our passengers’ trains, as against the unsubstantiated and purported media report of attack by gunmen.

“The does not constitute security threat to the operation of the train service. It is a deliberate attempt by unpatriotic individuals to damage federal government’s asset and property.

“These properties are provided to alleviate the transportation problems of Nigerians, besides being a source of employment to the people residing in the environment. “
