LANDMARK UNIVERSITY DELEGATES SECURE TOP AWARDS AT RUIMUN CONFERENCE
At the Tuesday 9th April 2024 Chapel Service of Landmark University, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Kolawole Ajanaku congratulated the Landmark University student delegates who distinguished themselves by their Top-Award milestones at the Redeemer’s University Model United Nations (RUIMUN) Conference held from March 25th to 29th, 2024. He described their performances as a remarkable display of leadership skills, representative of their institution’s commitment to academic excellence and global citizenship. While encouraging other students to emulate them, he gave the outstanding students warm handshakes which were followed by a declaration of blessings upon them.
The conference, with the theme "Peace Prosperity and Sustainability: A Call to Action," attracted delegates from various tertiary institutions in Nigeria to deliberate on pressing global issues ranging from social and human rights issues to economic and financial challenges. Guided by the theme, delegates delved into the complexities of global affairs, proposing innovative solutions towards addressing the issues facing their respective nations. The Landmark University students’ exceptional performance earned them the title of “The Outstanding Delegation” among all participating institutions. King Ayodeji Oluwatobi distinguished himself as the “Best Delegate” from the United Nations Security Council Committee and was awarded the “Overall Best Delegate of the RUIMUN Conference,” an award which secured him full sponsorship to attend the Ghana Model United Nations Conference later in the year.
The Conference afforded delegates the opportunity to embark on an excursion to explore the cultural heritage of the indigenous people of Osun State at the National Commission for Museums and Monuments, Oshogbo, enriching their understanding of history and cultural practices.
The moment of celebration of these students who made the University proud was memorable and inspiring for the Landmark University Community.

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.
