The Federal Government has declared December 24, 25 and 28 public holidays to mark Maulud Nabiy, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, respectively.

The Minister of the Interior, Lt.-Gen. Abdulrahman Dambazau (retd), made the declaration on Thursday in Abuja in a statement signed by the Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Mr. Bassey Akpanyung.

“The Federal Government has declared Thursday, 24th December, 2015 as public holiday to mark Eid-El-Maulud celebration.
