I was expecting Nigeria to be around second or third....I guess this one too is a victory for the istration Abi how you see am

which kind yeye victory. Those countries' labour forces are way more productive than Nigeria's because of enabling environments and pro-people government policies.
In Nigeria , her labour force is overworked and poorly taking care of.
Oyinbo understand the practice of work-life balance.

My kontri disappoint me for the first time . Congratulations on this one

There are around 12-14 federal public holidays in Nigeria each year, not 11. Each state also has her own additional public holidays.

Lol. There should be 'haha' button on Nairaland. Victory indeed😂😂😂

Nigeria has failed

89green:
Asia no dey use public holiday play at all. I know places like UK will not be on that list, bank holiday no too much, dem too like hustle.

It's because most holidays in the UK are paid at double pay by most employers.

Nigeria is one digit

Does this information now cover up for what went down this time?

Na just 8days for the whole year. Awon werey!

We should have 30days holidays in a year.

Cause we 13month in a year.

Do your math well, you're working extra one month free😂😂

New year day - 1

Good Friday - 1

Easter Monday - 1

Christmas - 1

Boxing Day - 1

Itunu Awe (Eid-filtr) - 2

Ileya (Eid- Mubarak) - 2

Prophet birthday - 1

May day - 1

Independence day - 1

Democracy day - 1


13 already, add yours.

The truth is, those holidays favours everyone in those countries and that is something Nigeria does not like, anything that will benefit everyone that is why Nigeria is not on the list. If it is news about top 1 country with highest form of human slavery Nigeria will top the list like 10 times

Since your expectations ended with disappointment, ...you sound defeated and sad. Maybe, you can go have a hug with any nearby transformer to quench your sadness.

MALLEOLUS2017:
Do you mean to tell me that Nigerian public holidays are not up to 11days
Mehn at least I'm enlightened by this thread. Ordinarily one would think Nigerian public holidays are up to 20days with the way holidays are declared.

They are more than 20 days with the pattern we use..but the holiday itself is 11.

Most of our holidays are often celebrated over two days.

Yes, but I think the post is counting the number of holiday events and not the days observed. This makes it 9 holidays in Nigeria. You get?
If it's by number of days, Nigeria will rise in the ranking. We dey observe 3 days now now.

Good info

Unfortunately, if you did the math very well, you'd find that for a 13 month calender, each month will have 28 days. Hence a 30 day holiday because of a 'free month" doest add up.

So u are just trying to let us know that Nigeria is not part of it?
Continue to decieve urself

Nigeria has more than 11 public holidays. i can count at least 13, so why is Punch saying its 11.

1. New year day
2. Workers day
3. Good Friday
4. Easter Monday
5. Democracy Day
6. Eid el Fitr Day 1
7. Eid el fitr Day 2
8. Eid el Kabir day 1
9. Eid el Kabir day 2
10. Eid el maulud
11. Independence day
12. Christmas Day
13. Boxing day

We need more to meet up with the expectation of those who think Nigeria is always the worst in everything.
