LANDMARK VC CALLS FOR CONTINUED SUPPORT TOWARDS VISION ACTUALIZATION
On Friday 28th May 2021, the Vice-Chancellor, Landmark University, Professor Adeniyi Olayanju enjoined faculty and staff to give the university management their unremitting support towards the realisation of the vision of the University as the 2020/2021 Omega semester commenced. He said, “Alone, we can do so little, together we do so much. Let’s, therefore, set out this semester more resolutely on the wheels of teamwork and collaboration towards actualizing our overarching mandate.”
He made the call as the Landmark University community converged at the International Conference Centre and the SDGs Exhibition Centre for the maiden Friday Faculty Fellowship in the 2020/2021 Omega Semester after recounting the University’s engagements in line with its tripodal mandate within the 2020/2021 Alpha semester, noting that all accomplishments were collectively attained. Prominent amongst these accomplishments were the successful completion of the Alpha semester examinations, graduation of 1st set of PhD students from the School of Postgraduate Studies who are also members of faculty in the University, face-lifting of the SDGs Exhibition Centre, accreditation visit to the University by COREN and NIAS. He further noted that the University has been a cynosure of excellence, noting the collaboration interest it has received in recent time from relevant institutions. The Vice-Chancellor, therefore, reiterated the University’s commitment to its mandate of teaching, research and community development, noting that it is the gateway to attaining world-class status.
The Registrar, Miss Fola Oyinloye, who made the 2020/2021 Omega semester announcement, reminded faculty and staff of their responsibilities and expected service delivery geared towards improvement in students’ welfare drive and academic performance.
While dwelling on the Commission’s Prophetic Focus of the month of May, (Thanksgiving preserves, multiplies and perfects our blessings), the Chaplain, Pastor Tope Johnson, exhorted the community to be thankful to God for their present positions, stressing that it is ingratitude that makes one to belittle God’s act in life, adding that no act of God must be taken for granted. He said thanksgiving is an avenue to assessing one’s next level of blessings. He, therefore, led the community into a session of praise to appreciate God for His wonderful works in the lives of the members of the 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.
