An urgent situation has come up and I have to in Kano next week. I'm currently assessing my options.

I've never been to Kano before; In fact I've never been to the North before. I know movement by road or air would be what most people woukd suggest I used but ETA to Kano from Lagos by road is about 13-14 hours and I don't want to go by air either because of how incompetent the Air sector has become. So, I'm thinking of going by rail.

Pls, I'll need suggestions/directions on how to reach Kano by rail from Lagos.

Thanks.

although train movement from Lagos to kano was suspended as a result of heavy downpour which caused obstruction but d repair of the track was completed today. to ur question, train ply that route every Fridays.will depart iddo at 12 pm on Friday and is expected to arrive kano in d midnite of sat- sunday. there is 1st class and second class ticket depending on ur choice.

Thank you very much. It seems like taking train isn't an option anymore for me at this point since today is Friday.

I was wondering if there are stops instead of just going to Kano directly. Like maybe from Lagos- Ibadan then Ibadan-Abuja etc
