Long Holiday For Kenyans After Government Declares Idd-ul-Fitr Holiday
Government has declared Tuesday, May 3, a public holiday to mark Idd-ul-Fitr.
In a Special Gazette Notice dated Monday, April 25, the Interior Cabinet Secretary, Fred Matinag’i, noted that the celebration will coincide with Monday which is already a public holiday and hence the need to move it to Tuesday.
“It is notified for the general information of the public that the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Co-ordination of National Government in exercise of the powers conferred by section 2 of the Public Holidays Act, declares that Tuesday, May 3, 2022, shall be a public holiday to mark Idd-ul-Fitr,” read part of the Gazette notice.
On Monday, May 2, Kenyans will celebrate Labour Day, a national public holiday.
