ABUJA- THE negotiations among
the Senate, the Federal
government and the leadership
of the Academic Staff Union of
Universities, ASUU over the
ongoing industrial action
embarked by universities
lecturers ended without parties
reaching any compromise.
The meeting which was at the
instance of the chairman, Senate
Committee on Education, Senator
Uche Chukwumerije, PDP Abia
North, was called to pacify the
striking lecturers with a bid to
finding a common ground.
However, a source at the meeting
revealed that all efforts to push
for a call off of the strike proved
abortive as members of ASUU
stood their grounds.

The source also said that for well
over seven hours, Chukwumerije
was literarily on his kneels

students and call off the strike,

shift ground.
