Hijra AH 1439: Osun Govt. Declares Thursday Public Holiday by Rico96(m): 5:31pm On Sep 20, 2017
Osun Government on Wednesday declared Thursday, Sept. 21, as public holiday to commemorate the Islamic New Year — Hijra 1439 AH, newsmen report.

The information is in a statement signed by Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Mr Adelani Baderinwa in Osogbo,
The commissioner quoted the state Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, as saying “Osun State adopted the Islamic New Year as official public holiday on Nov. 15, 2012.

“The Islamic year started counting in 622 AD after the migration of Prophet Muhammad from Makkah to Madinah in Saudi Arabia.”

He stated that the governor wished Muslims in the state and across the world a happy New Year celebration and urged residents of the state to continue to live peacefully with one another.

The governor advised the people to use the new Islamic Year for spiritual development, noting that Thursday was the first day of Muharram, the first month in the Islamic calendar.

You are obviously too slow to join the dots.
Shame that this is the sort of 'educated' persons our schools (I can't type universities) are producing.


Have you tried to quantify how much government stands to lose everytime a public holiday is observed?
Well I guess not as this has never crossed your mind going by your rushed and thoughtless comment.


Go read a book or something...

Islamic New Year?

Please,is today Jan 1st? shocked

I believe they have marked their own,they shouldn't now mark Jan 1st with us ooooo. grin

On a serious note,
Too many holidays,less productivity.
There are also xtians in that state as well.

Well,when they have a xtian Gov,he might want to balance the equation by also creating a public holiday for 'Jesus turning water to wine' day.

Religion everywhere,yet we learn and practice nothing.

We pray more than others,
While all the bad things dey our head.

We have the highest number of churches and mosques in the world,nothing.
We add to the IGR of Saudi Arabia and Israel every year,yet nothing.
Scrap the damn fucking pilgrims Board.
