Explaining the reason for the emergency meeting, the Minister said the meeting is intended to nip the strike in the bud.
It will be recalled that ASUU has issued a notice of strike after calling off a nine-month-old strike in January this year, saying, the intended strike is over the refusal of the Government to implement some of the agreements entered into between the union and the Federal Government.
