There are 250 working days in Nigeria in 2026. That's calculated from 365 calendar days minus 104 weekend days and 11 public holidays that fall on a weekday. The remaining 3 public holidays land on weekends and don't reduce the working-day count.
Nigeria has 2000 working hours in 2026, based on the 40-hour statutory work week (8 hours per day × 250 working days). Source: Nigerian Labour Act (Chapter 198).
14 public holidays fall in 2026: New Year's Day (2026-01-01); Id el Fitr (2026-03-20); Good Friday (2026-04-03); Easter Monday (2026-04-06); Worker's Day (2026-05-01); Id el Kabir (2026-05-27) and 8 more.
No — only nationwide public and bank holidays defined by Nigerian Labour Act (Chapter 198) are subtracted. Regional, observance, and optional holidays vary by state or canton and aren't included so the headline figure stays consistent for nationwide payroll, billing, and capacity-planning use.
