The Abuja-Kaduna and Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge rail services were scheduled to resume operations at 9.15 a.m. and 1p.m. on Saturday, November 20, 2021 respectively, following the suspension of strike by railway workers.
The Managing Director of Nigerian Railways Corporation (NRC), Mr Fidet Okhiria, disclosed this in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).

NAN reports that the railway workers had on Thursday embarked on a three-day warning strike over staff members’ welfare issues, thus paralysing rail transportation across the country. (NAN)
