The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) temporarily increases train services on the Lagos–Ibadan Train Service (LITS) corridor to meet higher passenger demand for the Sallah celebration. NRC management says it will operate six train trips on Tuesday, May 26, instead of the usual four trips currently run on the route, as the holiday approaches. The service expansion is intended to accommodate increased travel demand from passengers moving along the corridor.
In addition to the NRC adjustment, Nigeria’s Osun State government offers free train services during the same period. Sources report that the state’s free train arrangement is part of efforts to support commuters traveling to and from locations within Osun around the holiday.
While specific timing and ticketing details are referenced through published schedules in some reports, the central points across outlets are the NRC’s temporary trip increase on the Lagos–Ibadan line for May 26 and Osun’s related support through free train service.
