The Academic Staff Union of Universities has rejected the initiation of new bills for the creation of new universities in Nigeria.
ASUU National President, Prof. Emmanuel Osodeke, told Newsmen that the government was yet to meet up with the needs of existing universities, yet it was pushing for the creation of new ones. 
Prof. Osodeke, said that most Universities were in dilapidated states, lecturers were not well catered for and kicked against more Universities.
