He said: “I inherited an agreement signed by the Federal Government with ASUU and that agreement was practically impossible for any administration to implement. We are still discussing with them, if I leave here, I am going to the Office of Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) where we are meeting with them. I hope that very soon, we will resolve it.”
He said: “We have made offer to ASUU. It is as complex as presented. Negotiation is ongoing. The National Assembly is equally involved.
“We believe they will soon call off the strike. I personally and passionately appeal to them to call off the strike.
“It will not affect the negotiation if they call off the strike. It is better for them to be inside than outside. Students have equally appealed to them.”
