The NRC management reiterated that, as part of the new security measures, passengers must now present their National Identity Number and a valid Boarding Ticket before boarding.
In addition, NRC stated that, with the exception of children, it would not accept ticket purchases through proxy.
It went on to say that ticket sales would begin on Sunday, December 4, 2022, at 8:00 a.m.
Remember that the NRC suspended train operations along the route on March 28, 2022, after Boko Haram terrorists assaulted a moving passenger train in Kaduna.
