The Nigerian Railway Corporation has refuted reports claiming that there was no medical personnel onboard the Abuja–Kaduna passenger train where a policeman died on April 5.
The NRC in a release by journalists on Tuesday stated that medical personnel attended to the late Police Inspector, Nambut Selbol, who was attached to a train conveying passengers from Kaduna to Abuja on April 5, 2024.
“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, who happened to be our passenger on board to revive the ailing cop but was in futility.
“The management of the NRC expresses 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,” the corporation explained.
