FG extends Eid-El-Fitr holiday to Thursday

It declared last week that Tuesday and Wednesday will be the two days off for the celebrations. 

The celebration of Eid will now take place on Wednesday, after the crescent was not visible in Saudi Arabia on Tuesday. This has led the Federal Government to extend the public holiday by one day.

“The Federal Government has approved Thursday 11th April 2024 as an additional public holiday to celebrate this year’s Eid-El-Fitr,” the Ministry of Interior Permanent Secretary Aishetu Gogo Ndayako said in an early Tuesday statement.

“The Honourable Minister of Interior, Dr Olubunmi Tunji Ojo while congratulating the Muslim Ummah for a successful completion of a month of spiritual rejuvenation reiterates President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR firm commitment to providing a safe and prosperous Nigeria for all to thrive.”
