Here is the full list of Public Holidays Nigerians Will Celebrate in 2022
A public holiday is a day when practically everyone in a country is not required to work or attend school,
Banks, schools, and many businesses are closed on this day.
Public holidays are usually days of celebration, such as the commemoration of a notable historical event, or religious holidays. Holidays might fall on a specific day of the year, a specific weekday in a specific month, or other calendar systems such as the Lunar Calendar.
In some countries, national laws make some or all public holidays paid holidays, while in others, no such laws exist, despite the fact that many businesses offer days off as paid or unpaid holidays. There is no national rule mandating employers to pay employees who do not work on public in Nigeria.
