The National President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi has disclosed that the union is ready for the renegotiation of the agreement it reached with the Federal Government in 2009.
Speaking on the agreement, Ogunyemi noted that the union would want to see which area of the agreement the government would want to be expunged.
According to him, the union is not against negotiation and sitting down with other stakeholders to consider the way forward.
