Kaduna Train Attack Victims Demand Compensation From FG

Nearly two months after the last batch of the 63 kidnapped victims of the March 28 train attack in Kaduna were released, the victims are demanding compensation from the Federal Government to enable them to restart life.

Their demand is coming just 24 hours after the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) resumed train operations on the Kaduna-Abuja route, eight months after it suspended operations following the attack that claimed the lives of nine passengers.

But the victims, who spoke to journalists in Kaduna, lamented that most of them lost their means of livelihood when they were in the custody of the terrorists who kidnapped them during the train attack.
