LANDMARK UNIVERSITY IS COMMITTED TO HER AGRARIAN REVOLUTION, VC TELLS KWTV
The Vice-Chancellor, Professor Aize Obayan led some members of the University Management on a courtesy visit to the Kwara State Television Authority (KWTV) on Friday 26th February, 2016. She reiterated the Management’s commitment to the actualization of the agrarian vision of the University. She appreciated the Management of KWTV for the publicity given to the University during her launch of a New Face in Farm Practice. She said that as the University is stepping up efforts towards driving massive food production to eradicate hunger, malnourishment and poverty in Africa, the partnership role of the media in the visionary pursuit cannot be overemphasized. On this basis, the visit to the KWTV was inspired by the commitment of the University to strengthening the collaboration between the two organisations in order to achieve the high visibility profile agenda.
Also speaking, the Registrar, Dr. Daniel Rotimi affirmed that the revolution has started in Landmark University with insightful and purpose-driven programmes to mark the fifth year anniversary of the University. Five, he said, signifies grace, which the University will be appreciating God for. He further remarked that the University in the last four years has moved from one level of glory to another, as demonstrated in the launch of some of her products in Ilorin metropolis, with the prospect of taking over the whole country.
In his response, the Manager, KWTV, Adewale Adebowale urged Landmark University to publicize her products and services, saying people need to have ample knowledge on the products and services in Landmark University. He confirmed that the University has stood over the years to be a major institution of agriculture in Kwara State, whose programmes and products should therefore be projected adequately. The Management of Landmark University later prayed for the KWTV to experience quantum leaps in her operations.

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.
