President Bola Tinubu is set to depart Abuja for Lagos State today ahead of the Eid-el-Kabir celebrations.
According to a State House press release, the President will observe the Eid-el-Kabir in Lagos, where he will also spend the Sallah holidays.
“The President will mark the occasion in prayers and reflection on advancing the transformation of Nigeria in line with his Renewed Hope Agenda,” the statement said.
Recall that the Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, had last week declared Sunday, June 16, as Eid-el-Kabir day after affirming that Friday is the first day of Dhul Hijjah.
