The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has expressed its condolences to the family of the officer who recently passed away while serving on the Abuja-Kaduna train.
Also, the NRC reassured the public of the presence of medical personnel on all trains to promptly attend to any emergencies that may arise.
Last week, a tragic incident occurred when a police officer on duty experienced a medical emergency and sadly passed away while aboard the train.
In a statement released by the management in Abuja, the NRC emphasized its commitment to ensuring the safety and welfare of all passengers.
The statement read: “The NRC management’s attention has been drawn to publication on various social and mainstream media on the non-availability of medical personnel on our passenger train which allegedly led to the inadequate attention leading to the late Police officer’s death onboard Abuja – Kaduna passenger train.
“NRC management wishes to emphatically inform the general public that we have well trained medical personnel and equipped medical cubicles to attend to any emergency health challenges of our esteemed passengers.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the medical personnel on duty was Mariam Abdulai who was assisted by a good Samaritan medical practitioner that happens to be our passenger on board to revive the ailing cop but was in futility.
“The management of the NRC expressed its heartfelt condolence to the bereaved family of the late Police Inspector, Nambut Selbol who was escorted on duty in Abuja – Kaduna Train service on that fateful day.”
