Thursday, May 1, 2025, has been announced as public holiday to mark this year’s Workers’ Day Celebration in Nigeria.

This was disclosed by the Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, in a statement, Tuesday night in Abuja.

He said federal government steadily drives the need for peace in ensuring industrialisation and economic growth.

Tunji-Ojo commended workers for their diligence and sacrifice, noting that workers’ efforts are largely responsible for the greatness of the country and the respect Nigeria commands in the comity of nations.

Hungry workers.
What exactly is the essence of the worker's day?

What is it to celebrate self...no light, hungry everywhere for workers..

Now they want to come and lazy the whole Nigeria. Anyways, what are they useful for? I hope the unqualified so called minister knows that, they will pay all civil workers for that day.


Also, has anybody noticed that Nigeria has the most holidays in the world. All the Saudi and arab holidays, any small thing - holiday. That is why okp*lor eyes can just wake up and go out of the country for one month, and be running the country from phone call and social media.


Can they ever not be useless for one day.

The man is active though not as he used to be when he first assumed the office. He was vocal and always going after the cabal in his Ministry (particularly Nigerian Immigration Service over port issues), till they came after him with that scandal about him having interest in a company that enjoyed contract from the former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Betty Edu.

The scandal affected him so much that he virtually "disappeared" and stopped championing good reforms. He is gradually coming back...

He had a vested interest in the company that received numerous contracts from the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs under Betta Edu. In fact, his hands were neck-deep in the cookie jar of corruption that plagued the humanitarian ministry under Betta Edu
