Okhiria warned that the NRC would not tolerate ticket hoarding, saying it has put mechanisms in place to guard against such.
Daily Trust reports that there have been several complaints over alleged racketeering of tickets on the train service.
Many passengers had complained of arriving at the train station two hours before take-off without finding a ticket to buy while they had to purchase from ‘black market’.
