A train plying the Warri-Itakpe route has reportedly derailed, forcing many passengers to be stranded.
It is said to be the same train where passengers were abducted from at its station in Igueben, Edo State.
It was gathered that the incident happened inside Kogi forest.
Many passengers were said to have abandoned the train for fear of being taken hostage.
It was gathered that the train left Warri early on Sunday morning and got derailed at about 12:noon inside the thick forest between Ajaokuta and Itakpe.
