LANDMARK RECEIVES BPZBP LTD ON AN AGRIBUSINESS VISIT
The Management of Landmark University ably led by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Adeniyi Olayanju on Tuesday, 18th February, 2020 received Mr. Chyke Samuel, the Operation Manager, BPZ-BP LTD on an agrobusiness visit to the institution.
Receiving Mr. Chyke, Professor Olayanju revealed that although agricultural practice in Nigeria has over the years improved, there are still other areas lagging and not yet meeting the world-class standard, hence the audience granted BPZ-BP LTD. Professor Olayanju further emphasized that relevant innovations should be encouraged to remedy the gaps begging for attention. “We cannot shy away from this reality of food insecurity and poverty ravaging our continent. It is high time we doubled our effort in the application of science and technology in agriculture,” he added.
While anticipating that the presentation by BPZ-BP LTD would explore more initiative techniques and strategies for boosting agriculture towards addressing the exponential population growth in Africa and its economic implications, the Vice-Chancellor recognized precision farming and sustainable agriculture as one of the panaceas to the challenges facing the black race.
The Operative Manager, BPZ-BP LTD Mr. Chyke Samuel in his presentation on Arisetech Microbial Inoculant said the innovation’s usefulness cuts across virtually all agricultural sectors from livestock to plants, poultry, aquaculture, waste management, water conditioning and many other. Mr. Samuel noted that Arisetech when applied appropriately, has diverse benefits which include increase bountiful harvest, decrease dependence on chemical additives such as fertilizers, acts as growth stimulants for faster growth and improve livestock health and quality among others. Mr. Samuel added that the company had chosen the university as its pioneer partner in the north-central region of the country due to its pedigree and commitment to the agrarian vision and is ready to experiment with the product on her farm.

NIGERIAN RED CROSS SEEKS COLLABORATION WITH LANDMARK UNIVERSITY
In a bid to expand its humanitarian reach and foster greater community engagement, the Nigerian Red Cross Society, Irepodun Local Government Chapter has expressed interest in establishing a collaboration with Landmark University on Wednesday 10th April 2024. The proposed partnership aims to establish a Red Cross detachment on the university campus, offering students, faculty, and staff an avenue to participate actively in humanitarian efforts.
Mr. James Ibiwoye, Chair of the Nigerian Red Cross in Irepodun Local Government, presented the organization's intentions during a meeting with the University management. He highlighted the existing involvement of university faculty and staff as members and officials of the Red Cross, emphasizing the need for a dedicated detachment on campus to further integrate the university community into the society's initiatives. Members of the Landmark University community in the society were Dr Bamidele Fakinle (Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering) the Secretary of the Society, and Dr Marion Adebiyi (Head of the Department of Computer Science) a member.
In response, the Vice-Chancellor of Landmark University expressed appreciation for the consideration of the university in the Red Cross's expansion plans. Drawing parallels between the vision and values of both organizations, particularly in the areas of volunteering and leadership, he underscored the significance of sacrifice as a core value shared by the university and the Red Cross.
Corroborating the Vice-Chancellor were the positive remarks by other members of the university's management present at the meeting, who voiced their support for the acceptance and operation of the Red Cross on the Landmark University campus. The proposed collaboration holds the promise of enhancing the university's commitment to community service and humanitarianism, providing valuable opportunities for students, faculty, and staff to contribute meaningfully to societal welfare.
As discussions progress between Landmark University and the Nigerian Red Cross Society, both parties are poised to embark on a partnership that exemplifies the spirit of collaboration and shared values. Together, they aim to create a platform for fostering a culture of service and selflessness within the university community, ultimately making a positive impact on the broader society.
