The renegotiation meeting held by the federal government and Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), late Tuesday, ended in deadlock.
The union had met yesterday with Prof. Briggs’ renegotiation committee with a view to resolving its difference with FG towards reopening the universities.
The meeting which held at the National Universities Commission (NUC), Abuja, ended, without resolution.
A source at the meeting said the committee only pleaded with the striking lecturers to suspend their action with a promise that the 2023 national budget will address their demands.
