Ramadan: Government Reduces Working Hours By Two Hours
Jigawa State government has reduced the official working hours in the state by two hours during the 2023 Ramadan period.

According to the statement, civil servants in the state would report to the office at 9 am and close by 3 pm between Mondays and Thursdays instead of 5 pm.
“Furthermore, workers would report to work on Fridays by 9 am and close by 1 pm as usual,” he said.

“It is also hoped that civil servants would use the fasting period to pray for the peace and economic prosperity of the state and Nigeria at large”. the statement added.
