2. Nigeria: ASUU, FG meeting inconclusive and adjourned
Thursday’s conciliatory meeting aimed at putting an end to the strike action embarked upon by university lecturers has been adjourned to October 21.

The Thursday meeting was convened as a follow-up to the previous meeting held with the Senate leadership on Tuesday, where the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, committed to engaging the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and other stakeholders to iron out the outstanding issues.
Although Thursday’s meeting could not achieve the suspension of the strike, it concluded on the funding for revitalization of public universities, according to a statement by the labor ministry.
