Since the attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train, Alwan Hassan, the acting managing director/chief executive officer of the Bank of Agriculture (BOA), has apparently been inaccessible.
On Monday, March 28, 2022, he was last seen boarding the Kaduna-bound train that was attacked.
Pulse previously reported on how gunmen assaulted the train as it passed through Dutse hamlet in Chikun Local Government Area (LGA), just a few kilometers from the train’s final transit destination, Rigasa.
According to reports, the terrorists blew up the rail track before attacking the passengers.
Following the event, a photo of Hassan was allegedly shared on social media networks.
The image is accompanied by a caption that reads, “Alwan Hassan has been kidnapped at Kaduna Train Crisis…We solicit for your prayers.”
An official from BOA’s corporate communications department told reporters on Tuesday, March 29, 2022, that Hassan has been unreachable since the incident.
“We are not so sure if he has been kidnapped. Yes, he was on that train. But we have not heard anything from him,” the official told reporters.
Although the official death toll has yet to be confirmed, numerous passengers are said to have been slain in the incident.
