The Federal Government of Nigeria has declared Tuesday, June 4 and Wednesday, June 5, public holidays to mark the Muslim Eid-Fitri Celebration.

Okay.ng understands this in a statement by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Interior, Georgina Ehuriah, on Friday in Abuja.

Ehuriah congratulated the Muslim faithful on a successful completion of the Ramadan Fast and enjoined all Nigerians to use the occasion of the celebration to pray for the peace, unity, prosperity and stability of the nation.

She admonished Nigerians to shun hate speeches and divisive tendencies and join hands with the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari to build a peaceful, strong and united Nigeria so as to achieve the next level of socio-economic development.

She wishes all Nigerians a happy, peaceful and rewarding Eid-Fitri Celebration.
