FG Declares October 1 Public Holiday

To mark the Nation’s 61st Independence Anniversary Celebration, the Federal Government has declared October 1 public holiday.

Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, Minister of Interior while making this announcement congratulated all Nigerians on this year’s Celebration of the Country’s 61st anniversary and assured of the Government’s commitment to tackling and eradicating all forms of challenges –be they political, socio-economic, or otherwise.

Shuaib Belgore, Permanent Secretary in the ministry quoted the minister as saying that “our warmth, welcoming spirit and love as well as the abundant wealth inherent in our human capital and the richness of our land, makes Nigeria unarguably the leading black nation in the world and Africa’s pride and beacon of hope, if we can rally ourselves together to harness our potentials”.

“A country of about 200 million  and above people whose natural talent, grit and passion glitter like the precious diamond that we are. Nigerians are sparkling like diamonds in the pack, whether in Academia, Business, Innovation, Music, Movie, Entertainment, Fashion and Culture. We are indeed the leading black nation in the entire world and no doubt Africa’s pride and beacon of hope,”
