The Federal Government has officially declared Friday, June 6, and Monday, June 9, 2025, as public holidays to mark this year’s Eid-ul-Adha celebration.
The announcement was made by the Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, who extended warm congratulations to all Muslims in Nigeria and across the world on the occasion.
Dr. Tunji-Ojo called on the Muslim faithful to emulate the values of sacrifice and faith demonstrated by Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him). He also urged Nigerians to use the festive period to pray for peace, unity, and prosperity in the country.
The minister reaffirmed the commitment of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration to reposition Nigeria on the path of sustainable growth and development through its people-focused reforms and the Renewed Hope Agenda.
While wishing the Muslim Ummah a joyful Eid-ul-Adha, Dr. Tunji-Ojo appealed to all Nigerians to unite in supporting the administration’s efforts to restore Nigeria’s pride and global standing.
