The Federal Government has declared Friday, June 6, and Monday, June 9, 2025, as public holidays to celeberate this year’s Eid-ul-Adha celebration. The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, announced this in a statement issued on behalf of the Federal Government on Monday.

The minister congratulated all Muslims in Nigeria and the Diaspora on the occasion, urging the Ummah to continue to embody the spirit of sacrifice, obedience, and faith as demonstrated by Prophet Ibrahim (Peace be upon Him).

Tunji-Ojo also called on Nigerians to use the Eid period to pray for the peace, unity, and prosperity of the country.
