The federal government has added Monday to next week's public holiday. This is to mourn those who lost their lives in the bomb blast in Abuja yesterday.
Heard this from a radio station.
Can any one confirm this please?

NO PUBLIC HOLIDAY, EVERY BODY GET TO WORK ON MONDAY, WE HAVE ALOT OF WORK TO DO, NO MORE LAZY AROUND, WE WILL MOURN THEM FROM OUR OFFICE WHILE WE WORK.

I hope this is not true

lol, you sound like my boss.

Haha! I doubt it. Or Mr. poster u're just wishing it could be holiday

wish this is not so,staying away from work is not the proper way to mourn who have passed on

I hope not

There's no crime in mourning but the FG is so quick in declaring public hols.

its a lie,d govt gave 1 month public holiday,

u wan mourn pple shae,dats anof for u,wen do u stop mourning n rejoicing in dis country haba, let dem even make it 2years public hoilday

Because Nigeria is not a productive country. Sucks the way they reason in this country

Did the legislators really get a six week break for ramadan?

Meaning Nigeria is going to be standstill for 5 good working days ?

@poster, you are a lazy brat! Go and work for the money you earn and stop hoping for holidays all the time.

I tire for this country, if a group of poverty-stricken area boys start to cough - Give them Amnesty/Cash rewards and send them for training abroad, If they kill Nigerians;  children, women in their sleep.  - say you have a list of sponsors to arrest but you will keep the list secret for security reasons   but now it is a UN building with 18 Casualties - You want to declare a public holiday, what about the 50+ Nigerians crushed by Lorries after a robbery attack, what about the 270 killed in jos in their sleep, what about the 2000+ who died in religious crisis up north, what about the infants who die of malaria daily even when WHO gives AID in cash and medicines to Nigeria yearly, na wa for Nigerians oooh, na wa oooh!

They should not try it o, those of us who are productive need to get things done, frankly they should cancel the Tuesday and Wednesday hols

WOW!!! should i celebrate or be sorrowful

Goodluck Jonathan carry go! 
Another ill thought hasty decision , no doubt.

Meaning?

Meaning goodluck is a goat yes in deed an animal prof what else do you expect and to those Nigeria that talk with sentiment go get better orientation and stop senseless response to post.

Pls is this true?

LWKMD, better get to work on monday, lol

Public holiday, pump money to drinks and Bleep

I sincerely hope it is a hoax but if not,then it is a shame on our government to misplace priority,the best would have been to close all work by 12noon instead of wasting days as though they are not valuable.Why did they not declare a public holiday when we lost valuable corp member who died serving the interest of our dear nation,because foreigners are involved then our president begins to play to the gallery declaring all sorts.Maybe he will soon declare market free day everyone should stay indoors. Nonproductive is the mother of all abuse of time in life!!

Sorry, NLanders, I heard the info from a talk show (not news) on a radio station. It turned out to be mere speculation from some guys who are clearly tired of work or don't know the effect of such misinformation.
Please dust your shoes, iron your shirt and go to work on monday.
Apollogies!

I hope this is not true because i have a lot to do on Monday.We are already mourning the dead but i don't think its enough reason for government to render her citizens redundant for three days.
