Eid Ul Adha: FG Declares May 27 and 28 Public Holiday
The Federal Government has declared Wednesday, May 27, and Thursday, May 28, 2026, 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, in a statement issued on Monday in Abuja and signed by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani.
According to the statement, the declaration reflects the Federal Government’s respect for the faith and spiritual heritage of millions of Nigerian Muslims joining the global Islamic community in observing the sacred festival.
Tunji-Ojo extended the warm greetings of the Federal Government to Muslims across Nigeria and in the diaspora, describing Eid ul Adha as a celebration deeply rooted in sacrifice, obedience to God, and compassion for humanity.
He also urged Nigerians to use the holiday period for prayers and sober reflection, while seeking divine guidance for the nation as it continues its pursuit of peace, security, and prosperity.
“It is in the spirit of brotherhood, shared humanity, and national unity that the Federal Government wishes all Muslims a peaceful, blessed, and joyous celebration,” the statement read.
