Its only in Nigeria that tey can think of putting baricades near railway. By the wa they will destroy it in 24 hours even if they did, a lot of Nigerians are ignorant
opribo:
Why not put barricade to deter people from trading or begging near the rail line.

Is it only in Nigeria we have rail lines.why do we not value human life.

This is wrong story. The person is not crushed by the train and is not a begger. He is an Alhaji, and wealthy man. He wanted to Cross's d rail but discover train is approaching him fast and tried to jump off but eventually fell and hit his head, which resulted to death. May his soul rest in peace. I just returned from his family house this afternoon. He is been berried at oke suna Lagos island since yestd.

The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) on Monday confirmed a passenger train crushed a beggar to death at Muslim area of Lagos.

Mr Jerry Oche, the Lagos District Manager (RDM) of the corporation, made confirmation while addressing newsmen on the incident in Lagos.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that an Ijoko to Iddo bound Mass Transit Train crushed a beggar to death near the Mushin railway station on Monday morning.

NAN reports that the unidentified beggar was one of the six beggars that sat in a row near the railway line at the Mushin Railway corridor.

Oche said life of every Nigerian was important to the corporation, advising people to endeavour to obey the order and signs attached to the rail lines.

According to him, it is against the law to sit or trade besides the railway line, either begging for alms or for any other reason.

Oche, however, warned traders, hawkers, beggars, and passersby to stay away from the rail lines across the state to avoid casualty.

“Anybody who has no business entering the train should not be on the rail corridor, because it is very dangerous.

“It’s like a suicide mission seeing a train approaching and you are still sitting down on the track,” he said. (NAN)

The train driver told him, "Silver nor gold I do not have but what I have I give you." then he blared his horn and crushed him.
