NRC Suspends Warri-Itakpe Train Services After Technical Breakdown

The Nigerian Railway Corporation has suspended train operations along the Warri-Itakpe route following a major technical fault earlier this week.  

According to the NRC’s spokesperson, Henrietta Eregare, the disruption, recorded on 9 April, was traced to multiple engine-related failures. She said services would be halted for 72 hours to allow engineers to conduct a comprehensive audit and carry out necessary repairs.

The NRC apologised for the inconvenience and reaffirmed its commitment to improving service delivery across its national network.
