Cross River Govt Declares 20-Day Holiday for Christmas and New Year Celebrations
The Cross River State Government has announced a 20-day public holiday for Christmas and New Year celebrations, granting civil servants the opportunity to engage in the festive season. The directive, issued by the Head of Service, Mr. Orok Okon, specifies that non-essential duties will be on hold from December 15, 2025, to January 5, 2026.
This move aligns with the state's tradition of hosting elaborate street parties during the festive period, a practice initiated during the administration of Donald Duke in 2005.
