Kaduna Train Attack: Man Recounts How He Held His Sister Lifeless Body

A brother of one of the victims, Samira Muhammed, who lost her life during the unfortunate attack by terrorists on the Abuja-Kaduna rail has recounted his experience when he came across his sister’s dead body.

Muhammad’s brother had taken to his Twitter account via @daftandcurious on Tuesday at 7:18 a.m and had tweeted in a blend of Hausa and English.

“7:18 a.m and we have neither seen nor heard from my sister. Ya llahi, babu abinda ya fi karfin Ka, Ya Raab, Ka bayyana mana Farida Ka tsare ta a duk inda take. In kuma karshen ta ne yazo.

“Ya Allah, Ka sa wannan hutu ne gare ta”.

“(O God, nothing is beyond your power, O God help us know where Farida is and keep her wherever she is. And if this is the end, o Allah make this a resting place for her),” he wrote.

However, at around 10:40a.m, he tweeted that her dead body had been found.

“Inna lillahi wa inna illaihi rajiun Farida S. Muhammed. Allah ya sa shahada ne gareki.

“I just saw and held my sister’s cold lifeless body”.

Muhammed’s body, alongside the body of late medical doctor, Chinelo Megafu, a director at the National Board for Technical Education, Abdul Isa KofaMata, is one of those that have been identified by the Kaduna State Government.
