Buhari's Demise: FG Declares Tuesday Public Holiday by Newsgeek24(op): 4:09pm On Jul 14, 2025

In furtherance to the seven days of National mourning declared by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Federal Government has declared Tuesday, 15 July, 2025, as a Public Holiday in honour of the late former President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, Daily Watch Nigeria reports.

The Minister of Interior, Dr. Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, made the declaration on behalf of the Federal Government, following the approval of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

In a statement signed by the ministry’s permanent secretary, Magdalene Ajani, the Minister stated that the holiday is a mark of respect for the late President’s service to the nation, his contributions to Nigeria’s democratic journey, and his enduring legacy in governance and national development.

“President Muhammadu Buhari served Nigeria with dedication, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to the unity and progress of our great nation. This public holiday provides an opportunity for all Nigerians to reflect on his life, leadership, and the values he upheld,” the Minister said.

He urged citizens to use the day to honour the late President’s memory by promoting peace, patriotism, and national cohesion, in line with his vision for a prosperous and united Nigeria.

As earlier announced, the National flags are to fly at half mast for the seven days of mourning period from Sunday 13th July, 2025.

The Federal Government extends its deepest condolences to the family of the late President, the people of Katsina State, and all Nigerians, while praying for the peaceful repose of his soul.

No work tomorrow

Nigeria and public holiday.

By the way, Elrufai declared Fridays as work free day in Kaduna. Just because Sunday is a work free day.

The so called FG should be specific, they have declared public holiday for Bola Tinubu, Aso Rock workers and Buhari's family and friends.....public holiday for a failed leader who intentionally decided to be wicked to his fellow citizens God gave a rare opportunity to lead.

He watched INEC organize the most shambolic, criminal election in the history of any nation.

He watched foreign Fulani land grabbers eliminate Nigerians.

He supervised Endsars genocide cry

What about Obigbo and Aba own in the name of Python whatever. Let me not say all that is in my mind angry

No be only public holiday...na public celebration day cos Nigerians ought to be in mood of celebration, mswwwwttt undecided
