Train Breaks Down In The Middle Of A Forest In Kogi (Photos, Video) by Rebuker(op): 11:20am On Nov 14, 2025
A man has raised an alarm after the train he boarded suddenly broke down in the middle of a forest. He explained that the incident happened just a few hours before Itakpe in Kogi State. Describing the risk of being stranded in such an isolated area, he noted that he had to turn on his location so his family would know exactly where he was.

Lamenting the situation, he blamed the government for failing to properly maintain the train system.

Eventually, a truck arrived at the scene, and some passengers were seen rushing to secure a spot. However, it appeared the truck could only take a few people, as many passengers were still left standing and stranded.

What King of country is this ?
No emergency rescue plan.
No spare train engine to go and bring the coaches?
Delta / Kogi axis of all areas.
Flight is very expensive beyond middle class.
Roads are very terrible due to bad state and insecurity issues.
Now, train are not reliable sue to frequent breakdown.

Ancient trains. That’s what our politicians went to buy from foreigners for their own citizens to ride.

Lols....that truck that came for their rescue , if I was to be there, must carry me and go, nothing will ever stop me from entering the truck but the matter is a disgraceful one in a country that should be above this nonsense....

Anyway when the President is above 70 years, everything happening in that country can't be less than 70 years , that train was manufactured in 1846 by the German Engineers....

edet19892015:
Unless you understand your role in society, you can never make any meaningful contribution.

According to the Greeks, they are three types of people on Earth,
1. The idiots,
2. The tribesmen, and
3. The citizens.


Studies show only 10% of Africans are citizens.
The remaining 90% are either tribesmen or idiots.

1. When the Greeks used the word "Idiot", they did not use it as a curse word.
Idiots are people who just don’t care.
If they sit for exams, they will cheat.
If they are in government they will steal.

An idiot does not care at all, if he eats bananas he throws the peels anywhere instead of putting them in a trash bin.

IDIOTS won't attend monthly neighborhood meetings. They won't pay security dues. They won't contribute to community development. Even when they see or know about something that will harm others in the community they won't report it. When they see/know/have something that will benefit their community they won't share.

In fact, Idiots don't care to register for or vote in an election, yet they complain the most. If they register to vote, IDIOTS will sell their votes for peanuts.

According to the Greeks, some societies have more idiots than tribesmen and citizens.

2. The next set of people are "Tribesmen", these are people that look at everything from the point of view of their tribe.

These are people that believe in you only if you are part of their tribe.
It can be terrible to have a tribesman as a leader, he will alienate the rest.

When the Greeks talk about tribes, it’s not just about ethnicity, they also consider religion, gang membership, group membership, party membership and even cult membership as a tribe.

A great percentage of Africans are tribesmen, because they view everything from the point of view of their tribes. They trust only their tribesmen

3. The last group are "Citizens".
These are people who like to do things the right way.
They will respect traffic light rules even if no one is watching them.

They drive within speed limits.
They respect the laws, and won’t cheat in exams.
In government, they won’t steal.
They are compassionate and give to others to promote their well-being.

Citizens often promote projects that benefit everyone.
The Greeks called this group "The Citizens".

Some countries have more citizens than tribesmen and idiots, others have so many idiots.

A tribesman can become a citizen through orientation.
And an idiot can become a citizen by training and constant enforcement of the law.

But things fall apart if you elect an idiot or tribesman to lead you if he has not been reformed.

Where do you belong? Are you an idiot, a tribesman or a citizen? Reflect on your life.
Reflect about your immediate community, city, state and nation.

Hope the driver/owner of the truck was verified before the people scrambled onboard. Let it not be that bandits came to carry people freely.
