“Campus security is a collective responsibility, and together we can foster a safe academic environment that supports excellence,” declared our Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Francis Igbasan, during the recently concluded in-house security training.
The Vice-Chancellor and the entire McPherson University management remain steadfast in their commitment to strengthening the institution’s security architecture. This dedication is reflected in the continuous recruitment and training of security personnel, ensuring the safety, protection, and well-being of students, staff, and the broader university community.
Over the years, the University has invested significantly and continues to invest in building a robust and sustainable security system. Beyond internal measures, McPherson University has forged strong partnerships with recognized security agencies, including the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Police, Amotekun Corps, Vigilante Groups, and the Federal Road Safety Corps. These collaborations shows the University’s resolve to safeguard lives and property while maintaining a secure atmosphere where academic excellence thrives.
In today’s world, security is no longer just about physical presence; it also involves adopting modern technology. McPherson University is exploring the integration of surveillance systems, access control, and digital monitoring tools to further strengthen its security network. These innovations are aimed at creating a safe, smart campus that is proactive in addressing threats before they escalate and neutralizing crime.
Security at McPherson University also extends beyond protecting physical assets. It includes fostering a culture of vigilance among staff and students. Through awareness campaigns, seminars, and workshops, the University encourages everyone to take ownership of their safety and that of their peers. This collective approach ensures that security is not the job of a few but the shared responsibility of the entire community.
Furthermore, the University prioritizes collaboration between security personnel and students. By maintaining open communication channels, security officers are better equipped to understand student concerns and respond swiftly to emergencies. This trust-based relationship not only enhances safety but also builds a sense of belonging, reassuring students and parents that McPherson University is truly a home away from home.
