To commemorate the celebration of Eid-el-Fitr, the Federal Government has designated Tuesday and Wednesday, April 9 and 10, 2024, as public holidays.


This was revealed by the ministry's Permanent Secretary, Aishetu Ndayako, in a statement released on Sunday by Interior Minister Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo.

The minister gave the Muslim Ummah congratulations for successfully finishing the fast during the holy month of Ramadan.

As demonstrated by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him), Tunji-Ojo urged Muslims to emulate and practice the values of kindness, love, tolerance, peace, good neighborliness, and compassion.

"To commemorate Eid-el-Fitr, the Federal Government of Nigeria has declared Tuesday, April 9, and Wednesday, April 10, 2024, as public holidays," the statement stated.

Upon arriving at the Muhammadu Buhari International Airport in Maiduguri, Shettima was greeted by party chieftains, state executive council members, and Alhaji Umar Kadafur, the deputy governor of Borno.

As is customary during such festive times, security has been stepped up in Maiduguri and the surrounding areas.

Depending on the Lunar calendar, which marks the beginning of the new Islamic month of Shawwal, the celebration of Eid-El-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan fasting, is anticipated to take place on Tuesday or Wednesday.

"The President will observe the moment in prayers for Nigeria and with family in deference to the solemn occasion, which marks the end of Ramadan," Ngelale stated.

The Nigerian leader would "continue official duties during and after the Eid-el-Fitr holidays," according to Ngelale, who did not provide a specific return date for Tinubu.
