Edafe said, “It is true, no death, no casualty was recorded in the incident.”

A passenger onboard, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the incident occured on Thursday evening at Abraka, Ethiope East Local Government Area of the state.

The passenger further said that the train was traveling from Itakpe in Kogi to Ujevwu in Delta when one of the coaches derailed from the rail track very close to the Abraka train station.

The incident occured at about 7:15 pm, few metres to the Abraka train station.

“I could not proceed with my journey.
“Some passengers jumped through the doors while the train was slowing down movement, dragging the remaining coaches along with the derailed one.

Some passengers sustained minor injuries, resulting from the stampede that ensued,” the source further said.

The distance between the Abraka train station and the Ujevwu Terminal station is about 20 minutes by rail.
