Notes
Observed means the day off is moved, usually to the next Monday, because the holiday falls on a weekend.
Estimated dates follow the moon or are announced each year, so they can move by a day or two.
Only nationwide public holidays are listed. Regions, employers and schools may add others. See also the 2028 calendar and time in Nigeria. Source: holidays 0.108 (github.com/vacanza/holidays), MIT.
