President Bola Tinubu is expected to depart Abuja for Lagos on Sunday ahead of the Muslim festival of Eid-el-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan month.
This is according to a statement issued Ajuri Ngelale, Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, on Saturday in Abuja.
The festival is expected to take place on Tuesday or Wednesday next week, depending on the lunar calendar, heralding the new Islamic month of Shawwal.
”In deference to the solemn occasion, which marks the end of Ramadan, the President will observe the moment in prayers for Nigeria and with family,” Mr Ngelale said.
The presidential spokesman added that Mr Tinubu would continue official duties during and after the Eid-el-Fitr holidays.
