Senator representing Plateau South at the National Assembly, Prof. Nora Ladi Dadu’ut has provided motorized boreholes in some schools to ensure the safety of students, improve access to potable water and toilet facilities in rural communities as part of her effort to curb open defecation in Plateau state.
Sen. Dadu’ut disclosed this on Tuesday, while commissioning some constituency projects in Plateau South.
According to the Sun, Sen. Dadu’it moved to promote sanitation in the state based on her strong commitment towards providing infrastructural facilities and learning materials in schools, modern toilets facilities, and boreholes to improve access to potable water in rural communities.
“I am determined to provide educational infrastructure in Plateau South because of my passion for education and my strong desire to give the youths quality education and conducive atmosphere for growth and development of the people.
“We need to intervene so that they will not just be left abandoned, so that they will not go astray. I have the zeal to help my community, particularly the youth and the women.
“As you can see, I started today by inaugurating some blocks of classrooms for the young ones because we need to invest in them. They are our future and leaders of tomorrow,” she said.
“We also inaugurated some solar-powered boreholes for the benefit of the people because water is life. Also, some public toilets were inaugurated with the idea of keeping the environment clean, particularly within schools and rural communities.”
She expressed gratitude to Plateau State Government and the All Progressives Congress APC in Plateau State for allowing her to serve Plateau South and Nigeria.
