The Lagos District of the Nigerian Railways Corporation (NRC) said on Wednesday that it moved 759, 500 passengers from Jan. 2019 to May, 2019.

The Railway District Manager (RDM) in Lagos, Mr Jerry Oche, made this known in Lagos

“We moved the above number of people in our Mass Transit Train Service (MTTS), Diesel Multiple Units (DMU) and the Express train services,” he said.

Within the period under review, the MTTS transported 704,242 passengers, while the DMU moved 50,208 people, and the Express train 5,050 passengers.
