The Federal Government has
declared Thursday 30th and Friday 31st July, 2020 as Public Holidays to mark
this year’s Eid el-Kabir Celebration.
This was conveyed in a statement
signed by the Ministry of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola on Tuesday.
He congratulated Muslim faithful
and all Nigerians both at home and abroad on the occasion.
He called on the 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 especially as the world is witnessing global health challenges caused
by Covid-19 pandemic.
The Minister, who assured that
the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is fully committed to battling
the scourge with the cooperation of all Nigerians, emphasized that government
would continue to foster peaceful coexistence, national cohesion and stability
in its march towards actualizing the full potentials of the country.
He, therefore, called on all
Nigerians to join hands with the Administration of Pres. @MBuhari in its avowed
determination to build a peaceful, harmonious and prosperous country, where the
rights of every citizen, are protected and guaranteed, as enshrined in the
Constitution of the FRN.
Aregbesola advised Nigerians to
take responsibility against the spread of the COVID-19 virus and also to stay
safe by observing physical and social distancing, personal and respiratory
hygiene, as well as other regulations issued by relevant authorities.
