By the way. See the rail track, the standard of the work is poor. Made in China infrastructures need to be monitored and check daily or weekly before usage.

No emergency response for a train managed by private firm.

Everything is just wrong with the country
it will take some time for emergency workers to get there or are you expecting them to teleport to the location?

Instead of asking for ways to learn from this , so that it doesn't happen again.

Watch as my fellow Nigerians will be bashing their country , forgetting that Train accident happens all over the world, even in the so called developed countries.
Do train accidents happen as frequently all over the world, even in the so called developed countries?

Maybe in Benin Republic and Togo huh

Meanwhile, how do your fellow Nigerians bash the country more than eb1lokan? There are different ways of bashing the country.

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu’s first supplementary budget includes a fleet of SUVs for himself and his wife, a presidential yacht and the renovation of his villa amid a cost-of-living crisis for some of the poorest people in the world.

The proposal — which seeks additional funding beyond the annual budget approved by Tinubu’s predecessor — comes as the government asks Nigerians to persevere through pain caused in part by a raft of economic reforms ushered in by the new president. Africa’s most populous country faces rampant unemployment, soaring food prices and a plummeting currency.

Federal lawmakers approved the president’s request for extra spending on Thursday, but eliminated the provision of 5 billion naira ($6.01 million) to buy a presidential yacht. Instead, they doubled the allocation to a student loan fund to 10 billion naira, according Abubakar Bichi, chairman of an appropriations committee in the House of Representatives.

The lawmakers approved 1.5 billion-naira proposed to purchase SUVs for the office of First Lady Oluremi Tinubu — an amount larger than that allocated to many individual federal colleges. The supplementary budget also proposes almost 6 billion naira to purchase SUVs for the presidency — more than the amount initially allocated to fund a student loan program for poor families.

Paying back the loan is very easy.

Shebi we saved $84 billion from subsidy removal in just two years huh

Kiss the truth.

TimeManager:
The Federal Government has revealed that the elimination of the petrol subsidy under President Bola Tinubu has resulted in savings of over $84 billion, which are now being channelled into the construction and rehabilitation of 40 key road projects across the country over the past two years.

This was disclosed in a policy brief released by the National Orientation Agency (NOA), titled “Two Years Later: Key Benefits of Subsidy Removal,” and made available to journalists over the weekend in Abuja.

The report, which reviewed the outcomes of the subsidy removal since May 29, 2023, noted that the policy averted a looming economic crisis.

It also enabled the Tinubu administration to clear long-standing financial liabilities, increase capital investments, and support the financial stability of state governments.

A Kaduna-bound passenger train derailed on Tuesday morning at Asham, along the Abuja-Kaduna corridor, shortly after departing Abuja at 9:45 am.

Re: Kaduna-Bound Train Derails Near Abuja, Passengers Stranded (Photos, Video) by Mathewrichard99: 5:21pm On Aug 26, 2025
This is the only sensible reason the train derailed. I was expecting this same reason also....if you look very well, you will notice that most of the rails are far apart without the knots to hold the joints......all the screws and bolts have been removed. The weight and vibration of the train alone must have expanded the rail to break apart since there's nothing holding them together....supervision of the rail track is very important especially before such trip. There is technological way of checking those things without moving an inch from the train office. Government should rise up and face the challenges..... This is so shameful but still under control......
