The Federal Government has declared Friday, June 6, and Monday, June 9, 2025, as public holidays to mark this year’s Eid-ul-Adha celebration.
This was announced in a statement issued on Monday by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, on behalf of the Federal Government.
Tunji-Ojo congratulated all Muslims in Nigeria and the Diaspora on the occasion and urged the Ummah to continue to exemplify the values of sacrifice, obedience, and faith as demonstrated by Prophet Ibrahim (Peace be upon Him).
The minister also called on Nigerians to use the Eid period to pray for the peace, unity, and prosperity of the nation.
He assured citizens that the reforms and initiatives under President Bola Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda are aimed at returning Nigeria to the path of progress.
While wishing the Muslim faithful a joyous Eid-ul-Adha celebration, Tunji-Ojo encouraged all Nigerians to support the administration’s efforts to restore the country’s greatness.
