The House of Representatives Committee on Land Transport has begun an investigation into the rampant vandalisation of Nigeria’s railway tracks and other assets of the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) in many parts of the country.
Speaking at the investigative hearing on Monday, Chairman of the Committee, Rep. Blessing Onu, said the investigation was prompted by the incident regarding the movement of coaches from Maiduguri to Jos which sparked speculations about the alleged stealing of NRC’s assets across the country.
She stated that Nigerians were worried about the state of assets of the NRC, especially as regards the safety of the tracks amidst incidences of vandalisation of the track sleepers which were intercepted in many parts of the country.
