A staff meeting that was supposed to be addressed by Egerton University Vice-Chancellor Prof Isaac Ongubo Kibwage was cancelled after lecturers insisted they will not attend the meeting.
The Wednesday meeting was expected to come up with a solution to the current financial stalemate that has rocked the Njoro-based campus which has seen the more than 500 lecturers boycott work to demand a salary increase.
