FG Declares Monday Public Holiday To Mark 2022 Democracy Day

The federal government has declared Monday, 13th June 2022, as a public holiday, to mark this year’s Democracy Day celebration.

The Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, made the declaration in a statement made available to the media on Thursday.

Aregbesola congratulated Nigerians on this occasion and urged all citizens to support the present administration in its efforts at ensuring a secured, united and prosperous nation.

According to him, “As we mark another Democracy Day in the history of our dear country, let us reflect on the efforts of our founding fathers and ensure that Nigeria remains one united, secured, peaceful and indivisible entity.

“With the challenges we face in Nigeria today, I see an opportunity for us not to break up or break down, but to break open; open up to ourselves in truth so that we may appreciate each other, understand each other, honour each other and live together in peace and prosperity,” Aregbesola reiterated.
