AG. VICE-CHANCELLOR TOURS UNIVERSITY UNITS, HARPS ON COOPERATION AND COMMITMENT

As part of efforts to get well acquainted with various units, departments and staff members of the University, the newly appointed Acting Vice-Chancellor of Landmark University, Professor Joseph O. Afolayan, paid familiarization visits to different sections and arms of the institution between 12^th and 15^th of August, 2014.

Accompanied by the Registrar, Pastor (Dr.) John Izebere, Professor Afolayan extolled the diligence, cooperation, sacrifice and passion which the staff members exhibit in discharging their duties, culminating in the enviable heights attained by the University in less than four years of its existence.

In his words, “the laudable achievements and giant strides that this University has recorded in very few years would not have been possible without the cooperation, diligence and sacrifice of staff members – both teaching and non-teaching. I am thus here to thank you for the unreserved cooperation and support you have given to the leadership over the last four years, and to ask for even more as we build on the success attained so far.”

Speaking on the focus of the familiarization tour, the Registrar, Pastor (Dr.) Izebere enumerated three major goals – to interact and get acquainted with staff of the various units and departments of the institution; understand their modus operandi, challenges, prospects and projections for the new academic session; and solicit their unwavering support as he (Professor Afolayan) assumes mantle of leadership.

The interactive sessions provided staff members of the different units a good platform to bare their minds on various issues and brainstorm on ideas that will further embolden and bolster the University’s drive to ignite an agrarian revolution and raise committed solution thinkers that will unearth the country’s treasures and put them to judicious use for the benefit of all.
