He also stressed that members will not resume until their demands are fully met.
He expressed that what university teachers want is total revitalisation and effective funding of the university system.
He added that Nigeria can afford free education at all levels if all the loopholes can be blocked.
At the meeting, he also called on the federal government to honour the Memorandum of Understanding earlier agreed upon with the union.
