Abuja-Kaduna train staff get training, 95% salary boost.
The Nigerian Railway Corporation has announced a four-day mandatory refresher training for all Abuja–Kaduna Train Service staff and confirmed a 95 per cent salary increase to be implemented before the end of 2025.
These measures were disclosed by the NRC Managing Director, Dr Kayode Opeifa, in a statement on Sunday. The announcement followed a meeting with AKTS staff at Idu Station on September 19, 2025, where he presented findings from the in-house investigation into the August 26 derailment, reviewed recovery efforts, and outlined strategies for the safe resumption of services.
Opeifa stressed that safety remains the corporation’s highest priority and that the refresher programme, commencing on Monday, September 22, would help staff sharpen their operational knowledge and reinforce compliance with standard procedures.
“The investigation re-emphasised the importance of strict adherence to operational directives, particularly caution orders,” he said. “The refresher training will ensure our staff are fully prepared to prevent safety lapses as we resume operations.”
