LMU VC OLAYANJU LAUDS CAPACITY BUILDING INITIATIVE BY FRSC
On Wednesday 30th May 2018, the Federal Road Safety Corp (FRSC) RS8.12 Omu-Aran Command held their second quarter workshop in Landmark University as part of their efforts in building a formidable work force. Addressing the Officers, the Vice-Chancellor Landmark University, Professor Adeniyi Olayanju who led other members of management to the event lauded the initiative of the command to equip their human resources reiterated the necessity of deepening the resource base of RS8.12 Omu-Aran Unit Command for efficient and effective services.
Professor Olayanju also appreciated them for maintaining a cordial partnership with Landmark University over the years. He stated that the University’s drive for building capacity as captured in her Core Values is unquantifiable, describing it as what made the Institution identify with the training workshop by RS8.12 Omu-Aran Command of the FRSC. “As it is a common Knowledge that no organization can perform beyond the capacity of its workforce, it is expedient we strive towards attaining continuous improvement in our service delivery via training and retraining, which underscores the significance of this workshop” the Vice-Chancellor added.
The Guest Lecturer, Magistrate O. M Adeniyi presenting his papers titled “Exposition on Federal Road Safety Corps Establishment Act, 2007, Traffic Offences and other Offences of Strict Liability: Prosecution and Presentation of Evidence in Court by Federal Road Safety Corps Personnel”, said the Workshop is an impressive act that should be imbibed by other Commands of the Sector. Magistrate Adeniyi added that in a country where citizens have little knowledge on road safety, it is expedient to enforce the use of road regulations. This according to the Lecturer is very important as adequate awareness will reduce the numbers of causalities recorded on our roads. While reeling out some of the rules and regulation road users must adhere to, Magistrate Adeniyi said all vehicles must be road worthy, and possess items such as Jack, C-Caution, Fire Extinguisher and Spare Tyre amongst others. He added that driver must have a valid Driving License.

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.
