Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki announced that Wednesday, April 10, 2024, will be a public holiday to celebrate Eid-ul-Fitr, a religious holiday marking the end of Ramadan.

“It is notified for the general information of the public that in the exercise of the powers conferred by section 2 (1) of the Public Holidays Act, the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration declares that Wednesday, the 10th April 2023, shall be a public holiday to mark Idd ul-Fitr,”- Kindiki said in the Gazette Notice.

Eid-ul-Fitr is a festival of breaking the fast”, celebrated at the end of the fasting month of Ramadan by Muslims worldwide.

Eid festivities typically last for three days in Muslim-majority countries, although the exact number of official holidays can vary.

The celebration kicks off with a special prayer service held shortly after sunrise, then a short sermon is delivered.

The rest of the day is dedicated to visiting loved ones, exchanging greetings of "Eid Mubarak" and enjoying delicious meals together.
