The Senator representing Plateau South, Nora Dadu’ut, her husband, close family members, aides and some journalists, on Thursday, escaped death when irate youths held them hostage at Namu village, Qua’an Pan local government area of the Plateau State, blocking the only thoroughfare leading to Lafia and Jos, taking the people hostage for hours.

The Senator was in Namu to commission her project — the only ICT Centre/public e-library — to give students access to online registration of examinations as well as meet other educational needs.

Qua’an Pan, among the most rural local government area in the Plateau South Senatorial zone, lacks basic facilities, and access to ICT for any online registration.
