*Sets up renegotiating teams for ASUP, COEASU *TUC, CACOL blame FG for strike The negotiation between the federal government and Academic Staff of the Union of Universities (ASUU) has been scheduled to continue today as both parties seek a common ground to ameliorate the situation that precipitated the strike embarked upon by the university lecturers. However, the federal government has embarked on the process of renegotiating agreements it reached with the Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP), and the College of Education Academic Staff Union (COEASU), by inaugurating two teams to interface with them. Minister of Education, Mallam Adamu Adamu, who inaugurated the teams in Abuja yesterday said the agreements were due for renegotiation since 2013 but the exercise did not take place because of some unforeseen circumstances; adding that barely two years into the life of the present administration, President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the reconstitution of the government teams and the commencement of renegotiation with the unions.
