In a heartbreaking incident in the Bwari Area Council of Abuja, twin babies, Hassana and Hussaina Barau, aged almost two, lost their lives after being struck by an Abuja-bound train from Kaduna. The accident occurred around 10 am on a Saturday, as confirmed by community leader Andrew Dogonyaro.
The toddlers, who were set to celebrate their second birthday in July, were playing near the railway track when the train approached. Despite efforts to rescue them, it was too late to prevent the tragedy. The incident was reported to local authorities, with the police confirming the accident and stating that it would be investigated further by the Railway Division in Kubwa, Abuja.
