A statement by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of interior, Daniel Nwaobia quoted Mr Moro as urging the citizens to pray for peace and prosperity of the nation.

Not a few had expected Friday and Monday to be declared as public holidays. This expectation is based on the tradition of declaring the day of celebration and the next weekday as holidays.
