The Federal Government has declared Tuesday, July 20 and Wednesday, July 21, as Public Holidays to mark this year’s Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

The disclosure is contained in a statement titled, ‘Eid-El-Kabir: FG Declares Tuesday, July 20 and Wednesday, July 21, as Public Holidays’, issued by the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Interior, Dr Shuaib Belgore, on Thursday, July 15, 2021.

According to Belgore, the Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, who made the declaration on behalf of the Federal Government also congratulated all Muslim faithful and Nigerians at home and in the Diaspora on the occasion.

What the Minister of Interior is saying

Aregbesola was quoted as saying, “I call on Muslims to continue to imbibe the spirit of love, peace, kindness and sacrifice, as exemplified by the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him). And to also use the period to pray for peace, unity, prosperity and the stability of the country, considering the challenges of insecurity we face at the moment.

These mainly are bandits in the North- West and North-Central, insurgents in the North- East, kidnappers, armed robbers, ethnic agitators and sundry criminals in other parts of the country.”

The Minister assured that President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration was committed to the security of lives and property of every Nigerian, empowering the citizens for successful living, the provisions of social investments programmes.

He also said that the government is committed to ensuring security in the schools, especially with the spate of innocent school children being targets of kidnapping.

Aregbesola also enjoined all Nigerians to observe all Covid-19 protocols, particularly the non-pharmaceutical measures, wearing of facemasks, hand washing and social distancing designed to keep the transmission of the disease at bay.

The minister expressed sympathy for the families of school children who had been kidnapped or suffered one misfortune or another.
