EKO HOT BLOG gathered that there are 21 public holidays in Nigeria for the year 2022.

It is important to note that in Nigeria, whenever there is a declaration of the holiday by the federal government through the ministry, it becomes an automatic closure of major economic activities.

For instance, all the financial institutions will join the holidays, schools, government offices and other types of business will go on break. Meanwhile, when the door is closed on others, it opens for others. For those in the entertainment world, the public holidays are the perfect period to organize events, parties, and other funfair activities.
