Prof Dadu'ut's efforts as Senator yielding results as Senate urges FG , NEMA to come to the aid of victims of Namu Yam fire disaster
Senator representing Plateau South at the National Assembly, Professor Nora Ladi Dadu'ut , on Tuesday April 20th 2021 again moved a motion on the Floor of the National Assembly urging the the Federal Government through the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) and other agencies to support victims of the fire incident that engulfed the popular Namu Central Yam Market in Qua’an Pan Local government Area, Plateau State.
Her motion was seconded by Senator Barau Jibrin who represents Kano North Senatorial District.
Namu Yam Market which is the largest farm produce market in the state was engulfed by fire recently which led to the loss of food items and other valuables worth over N1billion.
Jibrin who seconded Senator Dadu'ut's motion said: “The proper thing is to have fire stations around markets and other important places.
In his words " I think the proper thing to do is to assist the traders because allowing them to remain after this event without their means of livelihood will not augur well for their families and those relying on them.”
Our correspondent reports that the Senate there after urged the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs; NEMA and other relevant government agencies to immediately provide relief materials to the traders as well as respond to the huge financial losses resulting from the fire outbreak, to provide succor to all those affected; and called on the Federal Government to carry out any other immediate action which will improve the condition of living of the affected community, resulting from the fire outbreak.
Senator Dadu’ut who is the first female senator in the history of Plateau State vowed to always put her constituents first in all her dealings .
She said i would continue to work and ensure that our Zone gets better and more developed .
