Program Coordinator at Kwapda'as Road Safety Demand (KRSD)

The birth of the Keep Roads Safe Demand (KRSD)/Quick Response Unit (QRU) on 30th September, 2011 came after the death of Kwapda’as Rangna’an Samson Dongban. He was killed by a yet to be identified motorist along Tudun Wada Road in Jos, Plateau State on the 23rd September, 2012. He died because of in-action of those around, hence the establishment of the foundation. We are all involved. We can each take action. Anyone can be the next victim. What will you do? What positive action will you take to make a difference?

Founded on 30th September 2011, it aims at contributing significantly to the campaign for road safety in Nigeria.
