Lagos-Ibadan Trains to Run Six Trips on Tuesday as FG Cuts Sallah Fares by Half
The Federal Government has commenced the installation of closed-circuit television cameras on train coaches that will be run on Abuja-Kaduna rail line.
This is coming a few days after the Minister of Transportation, Mu’azu Sambo, announced the postponement of the train service resumption by one week.
PUNCH reported last week that some contractors were at the Idu rail station to install the cameras and trackers but couldn’t install them.

Punch correspondent, who visited the Idu rail station on Tuesday, observed that workers said to be working for FG contractors were installing the cameras on the coaches.
