The NRC gave the warning via a statement issued by its Managing Director, Fidet Okhiria, on Saturday, August 5, 2023.
Okhiria urged passengers to always obtain their train boarding tickets at the designated railway stations.

“However, NRC is yet to commence selling of Lagos to Ibadan train tickets online, this may have been done by fraudsters intending to scam unsuspecting train passengers.
“NRC is hereby advising Lagos to Ibadan train passengers to be wary of these fraudulent cyber space criminals, by obtaining their train boarding tickets at railway stations.”
He added that the NRC is working hard to introduce secure online ticketing on Lagos to Ibadan and Warri to Itakpe train services soon.
