Meanwhile, the national president of ASUU, Biodun Ogunyemi told newsmen after the meeting that the union will come back after one week to take its final decisions.

Now we have some concrete proposal that we will take back to our members for consideration,” he said.

The Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, on the other hand said ASUU’s demands have been addressed and the union will get back to the government in a week after consulting with its principals.
