The Chief Public Relations Officer of NRC, Mr Callistus Unyimadu, said in a statement on Thursday that the adjustment was due to the Federal Capital Territory Council elections.

“This is to inform our esteemed passengers and the general public that the outbound train will now depart at 7.30 a.m.

“The inbound service from Kaduna to Abuja remains unchanged and will depart at 2.30 p.m. as scheduled,” he said.
